Furthermore

Links

• via MeFi - insanely great new Dr Who adventure staged with GI Joe dolls and basically whatever comes to hand. It's incredibly professionally done.
• Charlie Stross - good, if rather terrifying piece about the requirements of a good chemical weapon for terrorists. The point of the piece is that both terrorists and counter-terrorist agencies tend to think in terms of "movie-plot" threats. I hope some of the good guys read this piece. I'm sure the bad guys will.
• via CT - videos of basically insane cycle races through New York, SF etc. Mrs Furthermore was rendered quite ill by the motion of the video (helmet cam footage). You have been warned. Also, big downloads on that site.
• CT again - I found the link above in the comments to this piece, about a short video of a chap driving through the centre of Paris at top speed in a Ferrari. This in 1978 I believe, but even so, it's still damn fast. More arty than the cycle vids, but I kind of prefer them to this. It's still cool though.
