I don't consider it trolling, it's a light hearted conversion starter, during a quiet time on the forum. Seems most were bright enough to take it in the spirit in which it was given. Note the smilies, indicating that the post wasn't meant to be taken seriously.
It has been successful, in so far as it got a few responses.

The earth didn't move for you John?

Well it didn't feel like it anyway.

We do need some rain,if we don't get some soon,and quite a bit,the bushfires will probably start in the next few months.

Nothing wrong with the weather here - and a comfy 19C in here, with the kitchen stove going 24/7.

And the ground stays still.

Light wind, and there are only two gates closed between here and the village, and the creek is not running, although it is a bit sandy going across it.

Too right, I took a jacket with me today, but fortunately didn't spend enough time out of the car to need it. I hate restrictive clothing.

Qld is a great place to be this time of year, for example in the dying days of summer I got a spray bottle of what I thought was weed and feed but turned out to be weedkiller out of the garage in the dim light of dawn one morning and sprayed 5 or 6 patches in the lawn. These duly died even with a few weeks of extra watering to try and save them, and then another few weeks extra to try and rejuvenate the patches to no avail. I bought some grass seed and over-sowed the patches a few weeks ago and my neighbour said it wouldn't work as too cold, but all the patches have sprouted and grown so nicely that I actually had to trim them with the shears yesterday!

Am I reading it wrong? The temperature for now is less than the minimum and maximum temperatures. Would have thought if it was any good at measuring the temperature would be somewhere between them?
