Its not beyond the wit of man to come up with a solution that
doesn't involve incoveniencing thousands of people when you've had over
a century to think one up.

The problem surely is not the whole of the last 100 years, but the last 5-10
when the press have become so obsessed with certain aspects of public safety
and the appearance of the compensation culture that these very stringent
measures have had to be adopted.

Blame the press, not LU.
