After the recent bombing of the London Underground, I hope these carefree gameplayers by their slightly unusual behaviour on the transit system do not become the object of suspicion, interrogation, investigation, and/or incarceration.

That would certainly be a little more "detective play" than they bargained for.

Sometimes I think it's getting harder and harder to have a wee bit of public fun. *sigh*

Hey! Thanks! I made that thing!

I don't think we'll be suspicious, for one thing I'm going to phone the TTC and let them know about us. We aren't doing anything weird just using cell phones on the bus, like everyone else.

Good point Dunvegan... I think they'll be ok. You'd have to be pretty dumb to think that 4 people wearing bright red and yellow shirts would be trying to pull off a bombing, but there are plenty of dumb people out there. Let's hope not as many in Canada as in the US.

Isn't this a double post? You should be ashamed of yourself stynxno.

Good call joelf.

*Bashes head against wall* No pun intended. Oh how I hate unintended puns.

As long as they're not wearing green polos.

Canada's pletty slack about this sort of stuff. My buddy and I were talking about the chemistry behind VX nerve gas the other day on the GO train, and I'm still wandering around free.
