Technology Spontaneously Combusts In Sicily
Zacronos writes "According to MSNBC, ever since mid-January, various electronic devices have been spontaneously combusting in the now evacuated town of Canneto di Caronia, Sicily; at this point, the fires are almost daily. The town has been disconnected from the larger electrical grid and was hooked to a generator, but that, too, caught fire. Even unplugged items have succumbed. Nothing seems to have burst into flame except where there is someone present to witness it, but the police no longer suspect a prankster -- after witnessing wires catch fire without cause. Scientists have yet to explain the phenomenon (although unproven theories abound), leading many people to look to supernatural causes."

"Just when thought I was thru, they pull me back in" you insensitive CLOD!
Though some of these devices are just random casualties, those with e-mail cpabilities have found an untraceable mail with an attached PNG of a horse's head in their root mail account. Says it all.
Sorry , but its true and its especially true in small european mountain villages, believe me!
Ahh, been playing Broken Sword 3: The Sleeping Dragon, have we?
Weather balloons have been following me all over the place, zapping me, probing my anus in the dead of night, making spirograph circles on my lawn, painting Elvis on my shower curtain, playing Yoko Ono in reverse, etc. Make them stop, please. I can't take it anymore!
