Bank E-Communications Aid During London Bombings
davidwr writes "Reuters and eWeek report on how the British Banks' emergency chatroom and web site helped them cope with Thursday's terrorist bombing." From the article: "The Bank of England, the Treasury and the Financial Services Authority switched on a secure section of their Financial Sector Continuity Web site to talk to major banks in the City of London's financial hub about how they were coping. A Bank of England spokeswoman said this was the first time the secure site had been used in an actual crisis situation since its creation in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center in New York."

Underrated -- Likewise, some comments get smashed lower than they perhaps deserve by overzealous moderators. If you moderate a comment as Underrated, you're saying that it deserves to be read by more people than will see it at its current score. As with Overrated, if you can think of a more specific moderation reason, do so -- if a comment has already been moderated with an appropriate label though, and you just want to indicate that it deserves greater visibility, that's what Underrated is for. However, if a comment is labeled with a fitting (negative) label, choosing Underrated isn't such a great idea, because you could end up with contradictions like "+5, Flamebait."
My comment hasn't been rated yet, so modding it overrated is a clear attempt at avoiding metamoderation. This is an obiouvs abuse of the moderation system, and I will inform the editors to have this undone and the moderators privileges revoked.
The evidence of abuse is so obvious.

Don't fall for that bullshit propaganda... Well, I suppose you can. Go believe whatever you want to believe. I suppose if we go by corporate owned and operated media, we should be back to giving up our rights as a top priority, hating and fighting arabs since it's so obvious that they did it and there was an oh so thorough investigation that proves it conclusively. Report your suspicious neighbors to the police, be selfish, hate eachother for stupid unfounded reasons, give up your rights, be happy you have a corporate slave job, don't cry over spilt milk now that your savings have been robbed, and bomb the crap out of those darn pesky terrorists women and children in the middle east. And this is slashdot the realm of the informed.

This comment has nothing to do whatsoever with the banking network or the London bombings. Therefore, it is offtopic, and should be modded as such. Whining about Bush is not relevant to this story. It is offtopic.
