Hallo everybody, Welcome to Olympia, Greece! Watch out, traffic jams block every road, today! People from all the known continents gather here for the First Games - a sort of country fair, a meeting of braves and sport nerds - that one day might end up to be sponsored by soft drink's producers if we do not pay a lot of attention to the
organizers.
A new temple is still under construction - we're always late when it comes to delivery dates, but not as late as the Italians - and to speed-up the erection all columns are made in Polyurethane foam with Vertifoam, a revolutionary vertical foaming system: components are carefully dosed - and brought to the mixer - by hand, and, as you can surely notice, we do not use CFCs anymore! We've imported this machine from Anglia, and it looks like we will have to pay royalties forever to use it! Water-driven gears move the machine's mixer, whilst good-old manpower does the delicate jobs: running the Bono Exacta metering pump and the block's pulling conveyors. Machines will never prevail over man, we have no doubts about it: do you see Mr. Fecken and Mr. Kirfel, how fast they cut the blocks now? They have improved a lot since last year!
Look how we mould with Polyurethane the column's capitals, what a beautiful table we use to carry the moulds: it's turned by hands, what else could one use for a careful work? We imported this from Italy, where they call it an Afros plant, but we know they mean Afrodites, our nicest goddess born from the sea foam: you see, we teached them something, after
all!
