Default They say 4 ( was 2 is more likely (was London bombs - the work of ONE man?)

It's over and done with - what does knowing or speculating add to
anyone's future journey plans?


It doesn't. But this newsgroup is not just about journey plans - it has
often included speculative discussion such as "what if the Aldwych
branch were to be re-opened and extended to Waterloo".

As Richard says, it is only natural that people want to understand how
the events of last week happened, especially given the prominent role
that London's Transport plays in most of our lives.

I would be much more worried if everyone thought that such events should
not be discussed here until some official report finally appeared in the
distant future.

Given that the Police appear to be saying that these were suicide
bombers why are people still talking about the possibilities of there
being one bomber?


I think it is important to realise that most of the wilder and more
inaccurate speculation comes from articles posted to alt.conspiracy,
which have also been cross-posted here. Unfortunately, many of these
lack the sound knowledge of London's transport system normally found in
u.t.l. - and many are also not aware of the up-to-date information that
we see here in London.
