I was thinking about how, with a bit of organisation, it should be possible to gridlock the capital with small groups of people in different places.
A group of 20 or so could block a key road for 10-20 minutes until police arrive, but then disperse before they have enough force to actually arrest. Then another group could block a different road/junction. They could play cat and mouse for days, if not weeks.
I'm sure it's been done, or planned at some point, so I'm doubtless wittering old news.

Weird. Especially from my perspective of you doing them a pretty valuable service with documenting so much that is happening.
Makes me wonder whether they've had some kind of threat from someone (in that case it *would* matter who you are).

It has surprised me that XR has concentrated on the centre of town. Block the junction of Warwick Road with Cromwell Road for 30 minutes during the morning rush-hour and you'll bring most of West London to a halt for the rest of the day. Must be a few other key junctions that if all blocked will gridlock the whole of Central London.

there are. but the people who know where they are have thus far proved reluctant to tell me.

Strange article. Doesn't say what happened other than he appeared in court, via video-link.
And this, which indicates Hallam could be inside until trial next year:

Arguably, kinda, in the "University bar pub sophistry" sense.
(for less physicsy persons - this is in the sense that a tennis ball's mass changes when you kick it, and I'm not talking about rubbing a bit of the felt off)
But regardless, he didn't mean it that way.
Also, seen many stationary photons recently?

I know I need to lose a bit of weight, but that extrapolation was uncalled for.

Old money. Yeah, last time I weighed that much we were probably using pounds, shillings and pence.
Also, sustained* observation of anything at infinite mass would not be possible because the Lorentz transformation can no longer put you into the object's frame of reference.**
* - although if you got close everything would be a bit sustained due to time dilation effect***
** - at least, I think this was considered correct when I last looked
*** - to a second observer, maybe - my head hurts now

The very essence of the scientific method is that personal prestige should not be a factor. The theory should match experimental data.
