Bismarck -
What roads cerebral will be taken...

It is a means of transport?
Chalky -
In the AVMA scheme of things is Metal always 'functional'?

Can comprehend the unseen way...
[Raak] Yes. It's a machine with wheels.

Chalky -
Does it transport people?
-
Bismarck -
In words and images unthought...
[Chalky] Yes.
[Tuj] Yes, it is motorised.
-
Raak -
Is it normally able to transport at least 10 people at a time?

To follow, lead or travel there...
[Simons Mith] Not sure what that means.
[Raak] After thought, yes, though it poses some uncomfortable questions.

[Software] Not a forklift.
[Simons Mith] Had to look it up, but Yes!
[Tuj] Sadly not, at least none of the common synonyms begin with P.
-
Was it able to achieve 0-60mph by 1970?
Boolbar -
Does the machine stay in one location while moving people around?
-
[Boolbar] You've given me the idea, and now I want to see a movie with a chairlift chase in it!
Bismarck -
Those lost and numb to ordinary love...
[Simons Mith] Difficult to say. On balance, No.
[Boolbar] No. Nice lateral thinking though.
Raak -
Are these road legal?
-
Rosie -
A light aircraft?
Bismarck -
Though still the sea kisses the golden shore...
[Raak] Yes, very legal.

[Rosie] No. A piece of three-dimensional thinking there.
Tuj -
Is it made by a particular marque?
Raak -
Does it run on electricity?
Rosie -
A boat of some kind?
Superman -
One of those special airport vehicles?
-
I really want to imagine that's been in a chase scene
Bismarck -
With skies aflame in the sun rising..
[Tuj] No, there are many.
[Raak] As of today, yes.
[Rosie] Not aquatic.
[Superman] I think you'd find them in airports too, but they aren't specific to airports.

Tuj -
Is it larger than the average car?
Bismarck -
Of an endless dawn awaking...
[Tuj] Yes it is.

[Raak] Yes, it does other things than carry people.
[Chalky] Not a transporter.
[Simons Mith] Not a cherry picker.
Raak -
Is it for transporting fluids?
-
Bismarck -
End on the high note, fat lady.
[Raak] Not really, no.
[Simons Mith] I had "bin lorry", but "garbage truck" and "dustcart" have been judged equivalent by Mycroft. Therefore take this recycled and slightly smelly baton and proceed!
-
[Bismarck] Thanks very much! I had been wondering whether the lyrics you've been posting were clues.
I'm going to pick... another MINERAL

Raak wins this tiny 5¢ metallic-looking commemorative plastic baton whose most prominent feature is the writing on it saying MADE IN CHINA
-
High time for some turnover, methinks. Hope the winning move is standard.

This is the end of the line. There is no more.
