tree dying from people shouting at it

[plugger123]

a while a back I heard a story about a certain African tribe. What they did is that they would shout and swear at a tree and eventually the tree would die and fall over. So this forum is probably a good thing. So maybe Telkom will fall over and loose their power if everybody shouts hard enough. lol. Hopefully by that time it will be a free market so that anybody that has the means can provide Internet access to the starved masses of businesses and people who want Internet but can't afford it.

There is a massive demand for bandwidth and broadband in this country. Just a pity that there are laws that basically creates an unhealthy environment that puts South Africa last on the map when it comes to broadband.

[pupa]

I think is because they also spat on it, (Spit on Telkom) hehe

Have any of you seen the movie/documentary called "What the bleep do we know?" Had a segment in it where they showed water molecules after they'd been exposed to different emotions and they change shape. Quite incredible really.

what poppy-cock!

Supposedly true this though....The same with music... trees live/grow better with Classical music/New Age, and been proven to die with Death Metal/Loud noises/Shouting etc full tilt at them. Was on some documentary few years back...

No wonder i got a few screws lose....All that Metal

Spooky...

I believe that story. Negative energy is very powerfull...especially when it is coming from a lot of people....this forum consists of quite a few members, so as long as we keep on being negative about Telkom, they will also eventually whither and die.

Well if this was true I'm sure that there would be an outbreak of spontaneous combustion at the Telkom helpdesk..

They had a simialr thing on mythbusters. They actually proved that talking nicely or shouting had no effect, and that heavy metal music actually helped the plants grow the most.
