In this context it's worth remembering the UK was the only country in civilised Europe of the day that did not take over the French revolution and by consequence 'Liberté, égalité, fraternité,' never became part of British culture.
Indeed, here in The Netherlands there is a number of conservative (Dutch Reformed) Christians that cover up the Europe symbol on their cars' license plates.
This EU symbol is a circle of 12 yellow stars surrounding the country designation, they are adamant this is part of a Roman Catholic conspiracy to take back the world for Satan (the Bishop of Rome, also known as The Pope).
In Europe you get the same security circus no matter how you fly, the explanation is the US has mandated us to apply such security else they won't allow flights from our 'unsecured' shores to the Land of the Free...
It's quite interesting to see now those that are the strictest followers of such a Divine Essence at the same time believe He needs their feeble human intervention to recognise heresy and punish the perpetrator.
Easier than watching it from the side, only the gap between the hot engine exhaust and the cool condensation might not be visible in the head on scenario.
The UK has in the last 15-odd years become the example Nanny State.
A day doesn't pass that either one of the tabloids is blasting the government for not acting on a perceived threat or an official or government department coming out with what should really be considered an outrageous policy.
A nice one was (yesterday?) the stopping of the head of MI6 from boarding a plane to the US because she had a can of hairspray larger than the allowed 100 milliliters in her bag.
Yes it's outside of the allowance but hey she's not exactly your typical terrist!
For me the biggest hurdle to cable internet is the fact I have to change provider plus I can't get it without TV.
For TV I prefer my satellite dish and we are waiting for legislation to force the cable owners to allow other ISP's access.
The cable ISP's are notorious for their lack of service and totally clueless help desks, until they match good ol' xs4all.nl I'm not tempted and stay on VDSL with 40/3Mbits/sec and especially shell access.

In the Ubuntu world updates only dry up during the first 2 or 3 days after a new distro came out.
So for me it's no surprise some slightly more responsible individuals were interested in the results of working in such an environment.
The problem is not that they examined the body parts but the fact it was done without proper authorisation.

And Steve Jobs was resurrected as God.

Because the government of G.W Bu... eh, Dick Cheney showed them how to.
Truecrypt disagrees.
MeeGo is run by the Linux Foundation thus truly Open Source and backed by money from Intel, Nokia and now possibly AMD.
I'd put my money on MeeGo especially because I don't see Google actively hindering MeeGo.

But being ahead of the herd has never been cheap and the rewards (or losses for being late) have made it a necessity.
Was that achieved with or without a reliable virus scanner and firewall?
At least Nokia advertises for the N900 the SD card is hot-swappable.
Duh! Bad moderation, funny cooment ;)
The God of these Vigilantes must be a weak God.
But to avoid copyright or patent issues you better make sure it was written in a clean room.

Yes you are of course right, I mixed up the interview of Sir John and the Baronesses plight.
What I meant is the tabloids are fuelling this drive towards more legislation by amplifying the voice of the silly.
The wide bodied might end up with 2 or even 4 distinctive contrails, it depends mainly on the size of the plane and configuration of the engines.
I am very interested if he addresses the apparently single contrail, most airliners I see have distinct trails per engine or at least per wing.
The problem is the system does no longer allow for a further assessment of the situation.
This should not be construed as special treatment or profiling but instead seen as the next logical step.
At least that's how it used to be and people would generally feel much better.

In the UK common sense has been outlawed.
For TV I prefer my satellite dish and we are waiting for legislation to force the cable owners to allow other ISP's access.

The main problem is their help desks are generally extremely bad, especially when it comes to network issues they are close to clueless.
The small company in the article must be one of the exceptions to this established rule.
