Take it one step further. Instead of taking pictures have the camera continuously film the intersection. Provide a ten second excerpt (+/-5 secs, with the light showing) with every ticket.
Looks like Microsoft is not fully committed to the unbundling of the media player.....
From TFA:
"Use the Accessories folder if users think of your program as an accessory and it isn't part of the core user experience. For example, Windows Media Player is a core user experience, whereas Sound Recorder is not."
Especially since all 43 advisories for Red Hat WS3 in 2004 refer to updates, whereas 9 out of 11 advisories for Xp Pro refer to vulnarabilities. The other two are for buffer overflows.
I did some digging and found the following for Os X, Win Xp Pro and Red Hat WS3. On a side note: all the stats metioned in the article are based on the number of advisories, not the number of vulnerabilities.

The article mentions 320 to 500 Million dollars as the "cost" for the whole episode. It also mentions that Microsoft estimates 16 Million PCs got infected. That would add $20 to $31 to the TCO for everyone that got infected. Those of us that did patch our systems probably spend the same in time: getting the patch, waiting while it is installed, then rebooting, all on company time.
I live in Leiden and have spend quite some time sailing that stretch of water. As long as you don't mind sailing in circles along the 10 mile stretch of lakelets leftover after the we drained most of the real lake in the 18 and 19 hundreds you'll be fine.
If you want to actually sail a boat anywhere beyond the lakelets you'll spend most of your time waiting on bridges.
In good weather all waterways in and around Leiden are extremely crowded, so I shudder at the thought of somebody messing with their laptop instead of paying attention to the right of way.
Final thought: war sailing is nothing. War windsurfing would be neat trick though.
Google keeps multiple backup copies of users' emails so that we can recover messages and restore accounts in case of errors or system failure. Even if a message has been deleted or an account is no longer active, messages may remain on our backup systems for some period of time. This is standard practice in the email industry, which Gmail and other major webmail services follow in order to provide a reliable service for users. We will make reasonable efforts to remove deleted information from our systems as quickly as is practical
I just read the dutch version of the article. Belgium taxes blank media, proceeds of this tax supposedly go to "authors". One of the claims is that the right to make personal copies is explixitly granted in the law that sets up these taxes, therefore making prevention of personal-copying actually illegal.

It's alll about demand. Here in europe all cars come with stick shift, and automatic transmission is only available on the more expensive models. They'll also charge you an extra 2K for it.

On which basis the Belgian consumer watchdog took the music industry to court, as mentioned in this previous slashdot story /a>

just an idea:
Wouldn't sticking the blades/tag under your tinfoil hat foul reception?
No need for an alternate universe. Dialing the Netherlands (+31) will do the trick. (Unfortunately the number isn't connected)
