The UK press is reporting that the police have launched a nationwide
crackdown on indoor cannabis growing operations, which have become quite
widespread in recent years. Which leads to the following memorable quote:-

Alan Gibson, Acpo's lead on cannabis cultivation, said: "Cannabis cultivation
is an increasing problem which must be nipped in the bud."
:) ROFL
For some reason, the beeb have removed that line from their report
(http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/5376698.stm); it was there first thing
this morning when I cut'n'pasted it into this mail, but now it's gone.
Fortunately the rest of the press haven't had such a serious SOH failure!
cheers,
