Not the first time something like this has happened.
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

I suppose that KFC and McDonalds are seen as 'symbols' of the west, odd really, they achieve absolutely nothing from this.

It's pathetic really, like a child lashing out at everyone else in the class because he can't have his own way :(

Perhaps they thought it would be a good military strategy to go after Colonel Sanders?

It is more of a symbol of the US more than the west in general. It is an expression of anti-americanism. I have heard that there is concern amoung the major multinational corperations that Bush's foreign policies are going to hurt their businesses overseas.

surpisingly, the KFC in tassie is rather good, they actually drain the food after it leaves the fryer, it's also much better than McD's..
i know people died and all, but this has to be asked...

"did it rain chicken nuggets afterwards?" :nervous:

If you actually read the article, you'd learn they were targetting the oil industry offices ABOVE the resturant.

Damn straight. Popeyes is so much better that KFC. Sadly, not too much Popeyes around here... I think the nearest one is an hour away.
