How very helpful of them.  If I were HP, I think I'd take them to court. _________________

How come these sort of eco-vandals are never sent to jail for this sort of thing?

What makes you say that? They're always being arrested and they love the extra publicity. Going to gaol is a great excuse for yet more protesting. _________________jonbwfc's law: "In any forum thread someone will, no matter what the subject, mention Firefly."

The thing to do is ignore them and see how mental they get.

But they're mental now   I was actually thinking that as I posted the link, 'Am I just giving the silly f*ckers publicity?'  Sort of like Radio 1 banning a song that then goes to number one cos of the notoriety  I often wonder what the 'active' membership turnover is for groups like Greenpeace - it must be friggin' embarrassing when you realise you've wasted quite a bit of your life (and with a bunch of tw@ts too), I mean how many struggle on I wonder, rather than face up to it? They'd probably have to make new friends and everything if they quit   _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:

Yes murder is a solution Hitler and Stalin used too.  On the more general point, I didn't detect much in the way of "vandalism". How much stuff was broken o0r made unusable, how much stolen etc? I suspect none. OK so HP may have to pay a few quid to have the roof cleaned (though it will probably wash off in the rain). The only ridiculous hype here is to report the behaviour in these terms....

I really really really dont like tree huggers. Just so youn know. But couldnt HP spend a tiny little bit of its whopping great big profits to research alternative non-toxic chemicals/plastics, for example? Its not like they're short of a few quid.

You green lovers will be pleased to hear that it's becoming nigh on impossible to source cad plated parts in the aerospace industry, as it gradually gets phased out...... Of cource, trying telling that to my PITA customer <name removed> Inc, whose design engineers still insist on cad plated everything because they CBA choosing a 5mil bolt with a different finish Sorry, it's been a long day
