TOO LATE

>>14330 This.

I appreciate you trying to soften the blow, but I'm dictating this post to Cortana because my head's already in the oven. It's electric, but I'm sure to run out of air eventually.

BROKEN BRITFA

>>14330
It's all fixed now.

Is it broken right now?

>>14334
No.

>>14331

I tried that once, but I just couldn't do it. It was so hot. Are you supposed to have it on a low gas mark or something? If so, how do you cook your head to death? What happens when you go unconcious and your head lands on the metal grill thing, doesn't it hurt?

It just seems like such a stupid way to commit.

>>14336

For one you are supposed to do it with coal gas not natural gas which would mean traveling back in time to the early 70s. For another you aren't supposed to light it, merely poison yourself which is why the coal gas is relevant.

>>14337

People used to have to put coal in their ovens in the 70s?

>>14338

Before we found all the natural gas in the north sea, we used to make gas by heating up coal. The gas board would bake coal in giant ovens, producing coal gas and coke. Coal gas was good stuff, but it was also very high in carbon monoxide. If you stuck your head in the oven and turned the gas on without lighting it, you'd be fatally poisoned within minutes.

I wonder how many people have baked themselves to death in a misunderstanding.

>>14340
A lot fewer than those who tried and failed, no doubt.

Time to shine. My neck of the woods this in many ways. the gas was called Town Gas very stable old engineers tell me. and heres a website of a place near me that still has all the stuff to make it.

I've been a few times good stuff. There's also a gas museum in Leister. but that's all to do with natural gas and the million uses they had for it when ti was first discovered.

I love places like that and have a real passion for proper, old, gas holders. The ones in Kings Cross used to be a particular favourite of mine.

Couldn't access the site a couple of hours ago, what was going on? Got 403 forbiddens and a default 'Apache has been installed' page.

>>14354
Hmm. Weird.

I'm currently on holiday in the Canaries. Just now when I try to access the site over my hotel's WiFi, I get the above problems. But when I switch to mobile data, the site is fine.

>>14356

This happens a lot to me also, depending what WiFi I'm on when I'm out and about. My guess would be some kind of DNS issue but it's a bit hard to verify that on a phone.
