More seriously though excellent commentary of the spill here including a link to a list of large oil spills of history.

A slight break from looking at those purple people, but via Samizdata it would seem that tomorrow is First Annual Everybody Draw Mohammad Day.
Expect some very bad art here tomorrow.

Many many moons ago, I muttered about getting badges made, well I did finally get round to it, though not in huge numbers. They look quite a lot like this:
Sorry it’s not a terribly good photo, but as I said back then if anyone wants one let me know how to send it to you (as long as not too many people want one of course). Otherwise I expect I’ll have a few with me on Old Holborns little stroll. If you’d rather have the graphics used, also no problem it’s here suitable for sending direct to Big Wow Badges for use with their 25mm badges.
See you on the 5th.
Oh and handily for after the event there’s a flickr group collecting pictures of Section 44 search notices

Not quite the second post I’d expected to write, but the others are taking longer than I expected, so I thought I’d share a few graphics instead, partly in response to anonymous comment to my last post and in response to something Old Holborn is talking about.
A while back I had the idea of printing small moo/business cards with a suitable logo on them and some text on the back that might prompt a spark of thought in people. I’d then leave them in books in book shops, tucked into poster frames and where ever else people might happen across them. Basically following age old traditions of viral marketing as it’s now called or flyering as it used to be. This plan is now under way with the first set of cards gradually escaping with the aid of some other people who thought it was worth a try.
