I’m sure many readers of this blog will be familiar with the Have I Got News For You TV programme. So I’d like to make my contribution. Which is the odd one out for the following: UMIST, AHDS, Lotus and Yahoo!?
For those unfamilar with this BBC programme, the convention is that the first responses are expected to be humourus, before attempting an answer. And note that there isn’t a single answer to the question.
Lotus is the only one you haven’t done Morris Dancing at?
UMIST – because you’ve hit all the others?
Or maybe Lotus – because you can’t smoke all the others? 😉
UMIST! Because the others were others have/will be merged against their will??
AHDS because it lost its funding whilst the others have all been taken over.
And I speak as one who has been thorugh many mergers ..ahem… takeovers
Has to be Yahoo! – it’s the only that incorporates an exclamation mark in its name 🙂
Who are Yahoo! ?
