We looked at television reporters as scabpickers, not journalists.<BR/><BR/>I saw a local story where they interviewed people down in our bus tunnel (closest thing we have to a subway in Seattle). They asked people what they thought about increasing security on public transit. They managed to find a tourist with what I'm sure the reporter thought was a British accent. Her response was, "I think it's a jolly good idea."<BR/><BR/>Turned out she was from Australia. <BR/><BR/>Sigh.Timehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07838683246636045823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861874.post-1120860843547148302005-07-08T15:14:00.000-07:002005-07-08T15:14:00.000-07:00Thanks for saying it Tim.

Just which famous hollywood movie stars have homes in London and may have been present during the bombings. Okay...so I'm thinking.... this isn't a real tragedy unless someone famous may have been within 100 miles of the bomb and could have possibly been injured. <BR/>I don't care that Madonna lives in London. I would not shed one additional tear if she happened to have been on one of the buses. The fact that all 50 people are complete strangers to me does not make this incident any less tragic. <BR/>Great post!Naughti Biscottihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11954505278010003963noreply@blogger.com
