	London Critical Mass 25th May 2007 - Doug. Video of UK London Critical Mass on its monthly ride, defying the Metropolitan Police appeal. There was a large attendance, possibly 1,000 or more, thanks to the call-out, some media attention and reaction to the court case. The cycle police were pretty laid back and vastly outnumbered, though they did still try to manage the ride by blocking the front so that the back could catch up. What does it matter if a 1,000 riders get split into two or more though? Towards the end of the ride the police ... Keywords: Critical Mass; cyclists; police; bicycles Downloads: 421

	cm25-4-08 - Doug London Critical Mass 14th Anniversary ride. A fun ride well attended with good weather.

	Critical Mass London (UK) has more police hassle. - Doug This time the cops decided to get tough with riders without lights and those who go through red lights and also with sound systems in the SOCPA zone.

	Pioneers of Alienation and 50s Sci-Fi at Thing Street Asylum - Jon Thomas Rowland (Last Revised October 4, 2009.) This work depicts the post-industrial, post-modern world. This necessarily means the inner city, the littoral on which all our detritus washes up before drifting into farther oblivion. It’s therefore no coincidence that Johnny sells antiques on Thing Street West, literally to lunatics. You’d literally (or littorally?) be crazy, to buy any of his junk. ____________________________________________________________ The main motif of Pioneers of Alienation is the t...
