Oh c'mon, you would have all probably done the same thing. Sure, he was stuid to press it, but not wanting to depress it and calling the bomb squad is just plain common sense.

Reading The Register is always fun, one of th few news websites with a sense of humour..

El Reg just plain owns. If I hadn't had my HLP cap already, I'd be running around with Vulture Central headgear.

Bah! I recognise that thing - It's a gas sphere, as fitted to a Citroen car I used to have.  There were four of them, one one each suspension leg, and it was pretty much the most unreliable part of the car.  The first topic of conversation of any Citroen owners always started "Have you have your spheres done yet" :lol:
