The Lone Gunmen have their own show?? Dig that Frohike.... small and hairy... yum... Mind you, Byers, tall and hairy..... phroarr ... sorry, digressing.

But yes, the plot is a tad too close for comfort. It's all very well TV stations rescheduling or pulling programmes because they incite violence, but who needs them when there are books? I read crime fiction. I could kill people in many ways, some of them undetectable at first examination, I know how many grains of arsenic it takes to kill someone and how it happens. I could do Manitas in in several new and interesting ways, and know what mistakes not to make, because I read it in those books, published in the 1920's..... Doesn't make me a murderer though (well, leastways, not until they find the one under the floorboards....). There is nothing new under the sun. If someone blew up Canary Wharf by setting a load of 'Spaw clones in the basement, feeding them beans and cabbage then giving one of them a lighted cigarette, then I'm sure someone would come up with a book that gave that as the method of clearing acres of ugly steel and concrete, or for mass murdering Yuppies.... actually, Canary Wharf and Yuppies.... anyone got a tin opener??
