Phorum, as configured, works in a mysterious way. The @#$%& is general-purpose. AFAICS, if a word contains an offending string, [ed: for some of them] the whole word seems to come out as @#$%&. But if you enter different offending words explicitly in the search window, the search returns different sets of hits. So there are in reality all sorts of @#$%&s. Ratty's making sense, but in a rather ambiguous sort of way. Without testing, we can't tell what kind of @#$%& he is on any particular day, or even in any particular post.

If anyone's interested in a film about civil disobedience surrounding climate change, have a look here: Just Do It.


Subtitled "the inside story on the UK's biggest troublemakers", it's a documentary looking at climate change protestors, currently in post-production and looking to raise funding. If you support their cause, have a shufty and give them some money - for every pound they raise in October, Lush (makers of uber-smelly bath things) will match fund it.


I saw some of the edits earlier this week and it was moving and quite affecting (while some bits weren't quite my kind of politics too) but worth a look.


And if you're not a big old fan of oil, or at least the oil industry's part in climate change, there's a march tomorrow. Get creative and get disobedient: www.crudeawakening.org.uk

I think it's pretty unlikely there will be much effective civil disobedience of the sorts Rosie mentions, it's rare that a group is well trained and strategic in their use of those sorts of tactics.


More likely waves of protests ranging from petitioners on street corners to (hopefully not) 1980s-style riots.

      There are so many variables. Good chefs can having bad nights, post-Brexit staff shortages, your dish might be brilliant, your friend might order something that's inedible. In the end I think the best option is just to go to the restaurant which has the best overall reviews. If all the reviews are bad then avoid, but even if all the reviews are good that's not a cast iron gaurantee.
