Rather than bump what was a tangential discussion in another thread (www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/General-Discussion/Chat/Mental-status-of-forum-members/), I thought I would suggest in a new one the following variation on the famous sentence:
Work expands so as to fill the resources available for its completion.
IF
(computer capacity) < (GP capacity)
THEN
(GP capacity) - (computer capacity) = Spare capacity for watching CPU
ELSE
Keep working
END
Pat is an imposter.
If that is an ECG from him he is dead.
Who is pretending to be Pat and using his account???
Funny you should mention that, I actually was hooked up to an ECG last week. Turned out that I was alive, after all, but only just. 
Your service CPU is still slacking on the job, GreenPat. About time you got it to pull its finger out.
I think that might be where all the green arrows go.
They start out all OK about a week away, but as they get closer they get sucked into GreenPat's CPU and turned into green soup.
The upside is that the CPU looks pretty full, so maybe some of the green arrows will slip out soon.
Maybe GreenPat is collecting them all up and planning on releasing them all at once in a giant GeenPat green arrowed fueled fartarama of epic down the line proportions ?
