I listened to a NPR (maybe the BBC) bit on this tonight of all things - the thing is that many of the Brits think the whole "invasion of privacy" line is secondary to the benefits of having a police presence on every street corner. Additionally they see the police use of "mosquito alarms" (http://www.jumpjet.info/CEM/12/Shelter_Components/Ultra-Sonic_Teenager_Deterent_System.pdf ) as a deterrent to "anti-social behaviour." Then again, these things aren't new - I found this article from 2006 that sounds much like what I heard tonight http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-405477/Big-Brother-shouting-you.html Hatton ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:332053 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
