Can I get one, too? My keychain just broke...

You got a Tesla Roadster a couple of weeks ago for hitting 15 years. Are you saying you broke the keychain already?!

Well, I tried the summon feature and next thing I know is that it is headed towards the sun.

The good news is, at over 75,000 mph, you'll only need to recharge 1230 times!

Hold on, I have been around but not for 15 years that would be ridiculous. Let's see, it is 2019 and I joined.... 

... darnit.

Yes but did you twirl the freshly beheaded chickens in the correct spin 2 direction under the full moon while reciting Einstein's special theory of relativity in base 3 hopping on one leg while your dog howls? I did it almost correct but I dropped a decimal point and my tesla showed up on my carport when I was 12. Some mysterious driverless truck showed up and towed it away... Amazing how that memory just popped up in my mind so suddenly...

Usually we give away a car for being here 10 years, but we're trying to reduce our carbon footprint, so you'll probably just get the keychain. It'll be a nice one, though. Mercedes, or Maserati maybe.

Obviously you haven't checked how much costs a Maserati keychain (about 80 US$).

You are well located to say.I assumed Poseidon was able to use lightning over water ,but have no examples  in Greek literature where this was claimed.

But I thought he raised storms at sea and they would have been tame affairs without thunder and lightning.

Did he have to get permission  for these embellishments ? Did Zeus have an ongoing armaments  trade with Poseidon  and his minions?

Interesting questions, I don't know.

There is indeed a confusion between the 2 gods focused on a famous bronze statue in the archeological museum of Athens Greece. The trident/lightning is missing, leaving a doubt with fanatic opponents. See http://www.greece-is.com/the-stories-behind-the-national-archaeological-museums/

Fanaticism and Doubt seems a bit Pythonesque 

I suppose heresy is as old as faith- and comes in useful at times.
