[edit] Vandalism?

"caused by local hooker Jamie Allen. Jamie was seen fleeing the scene wearing fish nets and no shirt or pants. the hooker evaded police for 45 hours and when captured Jamie offered the officers FREE sex if they would let her go. she was sentanced to death by Judge Hawthorne who origionally worked in salem for 15 years. Jamie ran to the bench and started dancing and repeatedly flashed the judge telling him that he would get to see more if he would release her. "

[edit] Old St and Moorgate

What is the situation with these stations? The timeline shows a police report of explosions there but makes no further mention. There were also early reports of three bus explosions. The only one mentioned now is Tavistock.

Read the Wikipedia page 7 July 2005 London bombings...
"There were fewer explosions than first thought, as two blasts occurred on trains that were between stations. In such cases, the wounded emerged from both stations, giving the impression that there was an incident at each station."

A likely explanation for the initial reports of 'Old Street' and 'Moorgate' is that they were mishearings of Aldgate ('Ald' can sound like 'Old'; and 'gate' can, obviously, sound like 'gate'). Carcharoth 23:22, 13 July 2005 (UTC)
