Abstract

Contrary to the well-recognised role of an abstract in helping to summarise the main points of the following article, this abstract takes its influence from Peter B. Frappell (‘Frapps’) and, therefore, is distracted from its key purpose. While the abstract was supposed to discuss the serious phenomenon of ‘Frappellian Motion’ (FM), someone just passed along some gossip that is heaps more exciting, so “let’s go grab a beer and I’ll talk at you”.
