Security Theater

XKCD on airport security.

I once failed to convince an airport security guard to let me keep my 150ml deodorant, as it was an aerosol containing gas and fine particles, but no liquids.

I also failed to convince them to let me keep plastic knitting needles by arguing that the pencils I had with me were far harder and pointier. They let me keep the pencils.

Planning: It was the baker, with the hippo's skull, in London.

A friend's found

a weird thing going on at the Battersea Arts Centre that's somewhere between theatre and roleplay.

Tickets cost around £14. Anybody interested when I have a provisional date?

It closes at 7, but I reckon there's enough time to see the Big Brother of museum curation. UCL has limited space, so invites you to come along and look at some of the more ... usefulness deficient items in their collection, and vote out the ones you like least.
