I have to give a presentation on satellite phones tomorrow, how the fuck do I stretch 'they're just like mobile phones, but with a bigger antenna' out to a 30 minute powerpoint lecture?

You can explain them how to use mobile phones
Probably most of them don't know.

If they don't know how to use a mobile phone they should be in some assisted care programme
I might just accidentally slip Hitlercock in as one of the slides

You could fill it with technical bollocks
Like the frequency bands used, digital compression methods, encryption, power, handshaking protocols etc. I don't know about satellite phones - maybe they use the same transmission protocols as standard GSM, but who cares? Rattle it all off anyway.

Their eyes will glaze over, and Hitlercock will be unnoticed.

Am I right? Eh? Eh?

and elbow them until they agree. Then spend the next 27 minutes arguing over who gets which Krispy Kreme donut.

I wished on them, but they were only satellites
It's wrong to wish on space hardware
