Sadly for Caspar - who had been bumped along the running order - by
08:58
most listeners have already left for work/wherever and it's only
people
working at home or on the way back from school run in the car who
are listening.  It's the 0710 and 0810 slots that matter - but the
chances of persuading R4 that crypto should go there are err... slim.

However I'm trying to persuade Tomorrow's World that it matters. And
if we could persuade the Manic Street Preachers to make it the theme
of 
their next single (exclusively available as an encrypted MP3
download?)
we might get some attention paid.

Failing that can I suggest we begin plans for a trial prosecution? 
Anyone
want to volunteer (this is not wholly a lighthearted suggestion)?
