@@ End of Day Wrap Sat 9/5/15 Sydney, Australia Time 2:20am (Really Sun) ♪ ♫
Hi everyone,
I did not write a wrap yesterday so today is a big one. We have so many wonderful answerers, and here they all are: Martind, Cstaib45, Alan, Squaddy, DarkBlaze347, MathsGod1, HeadingNorth, CPhill, Nathan0501, Everymornin17, Awsomeee, SilkerR7, Civonamzuk, Zacismyname, Mihail, annabelle1DirectionS, Geno3141, Xerces, Fiora, EinsteinJr and MrGenius. A big thank you to each of you.

I saved this post for the wrap because it was extremely funny.
I have whited out a number of offensive posts that it did contain.
Volume of cube given the SA. (Thanks Geno3141 for your great answer.)
There is some very unacceptable behaviour on the forum at present.
Nauseated was voicing his displeasure with his usual degree of mordant humour.
However, this is a serious matter, if the offensive posts and private messages from members continue THEY WILL ultimately result in account suspensions.
Members are expected to be civil to one another at all times. Also, this is not face book or a games site.
We all want everyone to enjoy being here but this is fundamentally a serious forum for learning.

If you would like to comment on other site issues please do so on the Lantern Thread. Thank you.
