I hear that Avogadro has now settled down. Until a few years ago, he kept changing his number.

I note that 602 is a Phoenix, Arizona area code, so there may be someone with the number 602 2140760. All UK area codes start with a zero. 0602 used to be Nottingham, but has been retired I think. Maybe he moved to Phoenix...?

If it's successful I'll open another place that doesn't sell main courses. I'll call that one Just Desserts.

Yeah, I suspected as much. But there's not really a punchline.

[ EDIT ] Oh. There really is an irony though I guess.

Fewer bugs = fewer spiders. That's a win to me!

To me as well. I don't have kids, so I do not care what will be left. I don't think that our species deserves survival. At least not those who constantly trade nature for profit. Those few tribes in the Amazonas who don't still have chances to survive when our modern world will long be gone.

Oh, I care about the environment and the rest. If we are going to destroy the environment the way we apparently are, it's not very nice of us to take a number of other species down with us.

It's just that I'm allergic to spider venom (think bee stings) and I've become a serious arachniphobe. I'd far rather deal with the extra bugs!
