BBC News reports:

>They actually made people sing Beatles songs.

That should be a scene from a Terry Gilliam movie... a creepy,
"Brazil"-style setting at an airport...

<EXT. ESTABLISH SHOT> Futuristic airport. Echoey footsteps can be heard
as jets take off and land.

<INT. LONG WHITE-GLOWING HALL> Main character, looking a little nervous,
wanders down hall, making those footstep noises. He's looking for his
room, checking a stub of paper against room numbers.

In doing so, he passes numerous interrogation room doors, some wide
open, some ajar...

Inside them all are frightened foreigners, sitting across from British
customs bureaucrats, and singing in various broken English accents...
"In the towwwwwwwwn, where I was borrrrrrrrn..." the next door...
"Mother Mary comes to me! Speaking words of wisdom..." walking down the
hall to the next door... "Let me take you down, coz I'm going to..."

Ken.

George III was the symbol against which our Founders made a
revolution now considered bright and glorious.... We must now
realize that today's Establishment is the new George III.
Whether it will continue to adhere to his tactics, we do not know.
If it does, the redress, honored in tradition, is also revolution.
          -- William O. Douglas
