Inactive Helio-Torus Node

-noun  Astronomy.

A now dormant spatial phenomena that had once been used to transmit messages via solar-radiated space doughnuts.



+EDIT+

Michimoro:  A reply made by Secundis on the practical usage of Inactive Helio-Torus Node was just so fantastic that I had to put it up on the main journal entry.  Yes... we've been watching far too much Doctor Who.

Comment by Secundis:

Torus - a 3-d mathematical representation of a ring or doughnut
Helio means Sun, 
Node being a reference to a communications node & 
inactive is rather self-explainitory

Dr. Who-meets-Douglas-Adams-like useage:

The Dr: "Our warning will never reach them because of the Inactive Helio-Torus Node."

Mickey: "Inactive Helly Terrapin Nose?"

The Dr: "No, a Helio-Torus Node. It is used to transmit messages via solar-radiated space doughnuts. But this one is quite defunct, dead, non-functional - in a word: Inactive."

Mickey: "Space doughnuts- can I get tea with that?"

The Dr: "What? And ruin the dark matter sprinkles? Are you mad?"
