The sky falls in sheets of iridescent flame.
The foul stench of erupting Tantalum capacitors fills the
air as the vile smog of their long overdue demise assails
the senses.
Darkness creeps across the face of the land.
Body diodes conduct mega-amperes into the substrate, casting
all calculations to the winds.
The hills melt and flow into the sea.
Nought save haunting melodies remain to remind us of a world
lost forever.

Joy blossoms like a bejewelled flower.
Radiant birds sing lyrically in the tree tops.
The welkin is resplendent in iridescent hues.
The first swallow is seen daily.
The Lorentz butterfly flutters through the Azores with none
to say it nay.
In the offing Leviathan frolics and Unicorns cavort in the
meadows.
The list admins ascend the crystal stairways to their places
of honour and adoration to the adulation and acclaim of the
assembled masses.
Bob Blick returns, turns off [OT] and [SCI], holds court
daily and bestows his sagacity on the appreciative throng,
and peace and harmony settle on the face of the land.
Russell outgrabe.

Except:
Olin, unable to restrain himself, subscribes to [SCI] and
sits mumbling about phases of the moon and waving his hands
while hurling the occasional basketful of dead fish at the
assembled joyous throng.
CO2 levels hit 666 ppm yet still the glaciers creep ever
closer. Nobody notices.
