To Borrow a Catapult
The intelligent recognise good ideas… and steal them!News of a glorious innovation has reached us. Dionysius, the Tyrant of Syracuse, has invented a device to hurl projectiles over great distances, with considerable force, in order to smash into, and hopefully knock down, the walls of besieged enemy settlements. This miracle device is called a ‘catapult’, and it works very much like a crossbow, but with a much higher firing arc. To increase its power even further, Dionysius scaled up its size and mounted it on a tripod to improve the deadly device’s mobility. Naturally, we think it wise to adopt and adapt this potentially war-winning device for our own purposes.
