Ahh, thankyou Groltz. Having read it, I'm not sure that I wanted to know after all. The world is a strange and terrible place.
I stopped reading newspapers quite a few years ago and (bar a movie or a little sport now and then) don't watch television, so the only news I hear these days is on the radio during my commute. Seeing as it takes me three minutes to drive to work (two minutes if I catch the traffic light), I can quite easily miss things.
Or, more to the point, not miss things. You know, I only found out about September 11th on Storage Review. Still haven't seen the footage of it.
Doesn't stop me having opinions though. Since I gave up on news, I have discovered that I have no need of facts in order to form opinions: mere prejudice seems to work just as well.
