Here we go.
There's a really lovely slideshow giving a timeline of the Shuttle here:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-14056002
- which features, in the first sentence of its first caption, this gem of moronic illiteracy and insensitivity:
- "The space shuttle was conceived as a concept long before man had even stepped on to the Moon."
CONCEIVED AS A CONCEPT?
I mean come on. What else does the person (= Year 10 Work Experience kid, presumably) who wrote this think happens to concepts? Did they actually manage the rather gifted trick of writing this without actually reading what they had written? Let's try some more excellent writing:
- "The space shuttle was conceived as a banana"
- "The space shuttle was bananaed as a concept"
Sheesh. Rubbish writing, Beeb: 2/10 for effort and 0/10 for your lousy manners. I diskard you.
