Reports are varying wildly, I just heard 5 dead and 150 injured, but
that seems on the low side, Al Queda appears to have accepted
responsibility.

If it's anything like September 11, we'll get wildly inaccurate figures for
a while, which will then settle down to an agreed lower figure.

There were three buses destroyed on the news at one point this morning,
until it was realised that people don't know enough geography in london to
know what street they're on.

It is far from agreed about what really happened on September
11........... Very much worth a visit with an open mind is............

just arrived at work very surreal in London, almost no vehicles;
millions of pedestrians. Everything cordoned off. It's gonna be a long
night.

I don't get it. They're so distrusting of the 'official story because the
evidence doesn't /quite/ stack up for them, then come up with some
fantastic, poorly researched theory and believe in it without question the
quality of evidence that they've used. Twunts.

Exactly. There are various other Usenet groups that get swamped with
these idiots. They illustrate the old proverb,

"If you keep your mind open enough, your brain will fall out."

Butbutbutbutbut.... every really *good* conspiracy shares these
attributes:

* all the evidence points to a prosaic explanation
* no hard evidence supports the conspiracy
* the conspiracy is so watertight that nobody talks

Everyone knows that! That's why Watergate wasn't really a conspiracy,
whereas Rosswell and the FBI killing JFK were :-D

Sarkozy the French Foreign Minister said on the TF2 News that Clarke had
told him 50 dead.

When my wife and I toured the UK on our tandem in 2003, I thought people
there were paranoid. They were not. I am truly sorry.

Some truly are paranoid. However, just because you're paranoid it
doesn't mean they're not out to get you.

The silly murdering twunts are just losers with no sense of proportion.
Even if they managed to kill 3,500 people a year we'd just hit 'em with TV
campaigns asking 'em to bomb slower.

Hmmm, not sure whether it's a good thing or a bad thing that that's not
true.

Should I have said no wonder they are paranoid? It just brings it home
that where I was moving about and thinking that the locals were nervous
nellies, I was actually blissfully ignorant. Care and best wishes.

Bummer. Thinks: I've been to Mary's, in a previous life. Ara Darzi
showed me the big f**k-off magnet they'd just bought. Probably
obsolete by now.

I worked for a guy called Alex Bonthrone (brother of Bonthrone Bikes,
for a bit off on-topic) who was friendly with Ara, and related the
story of the day Ara's son told his class that his dad had just been
made a Mufasa[1]. Needless to say the name was in common currency in
his group for a while...

[1] Professor, natch.
