Scratch

Here you will find older scratches, musings and other detritus that once were located on the front pages, but have now faded.

Filed away here to collect dust and cobwwwebs in perpetuity, links may break, facts may change and data may corrupt.

On occasion I may come down here to tidy, but for the most, I prefer to leave the past where it lies.

The web can be a wonderful thing, and one aspect is storing information for perpetuity. I was rereading this old post of mine and decided to follow the links and see whether The Register was continuing tracking such occurences. I'm glad for all our safety it this BBC Article. I only mention it to draw attention to the statement (with my emphasis):

We would like to reassure domestic customers this isn't something that is likely to happen in their own homes.

If I'm reading this correct, "isn't ...likely", as in probably not, although possible? Rat brained controlled fighter planes raining doom and destruction down on me from the skies I can handle. War is hell afterall.

Its the being blown up whilst sitting in the bathroom innocently reading I am not so au fait with.
