Unique Invention Helps Cut Work in Half

Peter Rukavina

My nomination for “news release with the greatest distance between promise offered in the title and reality offered in the body” goes to Unique Invention Helps Cut Work in Half.

Here I was, thinking “wow, I knew some Islander would crack the fusion/fission thing eventually” and what I get, in return, was a cauliflower “banding aid.”

Not to suggest that if I was in the cauliflower business I wouldn’t welcome such a product. But I thought they were talking about my work!

I wondered how long it would take to get some variant of this particular “invention” into the Government garage. As I read the release, my sense of suspended reality grew and grew till I found myself wondering if I had missed a few months and we were at April 1. But then these same people tell us about the Charlottetown Smart Community and the ATC.
