On a serious note, the guys who set up the boards for Turner have  
been charged and could face up to five years in prison.

 From CNN: "Peter Berdovsky, 27, a freelance video artist from  
Arlington, Massachusetts, and Sean Stevens, 28, were facing charges  
of placing a hoax device in a way that results in panic, as well as  
one count of disorderly conduct, said Massachusetts Attorney General  
Martha Coakley. The hoax charge is a felony, she said. Both men were  
arrested Wednesday evening.

According to his Web site, Berdovsky is a graduate of the  
Massachusetts College of Art and a founding member of a video artists  
group called Glitch.

Although these guys were on a paid guerilla marketing campaign for  
Turner, it seems to be more frequent that performers, artists and  
protesters over here in the UK are falling foul of "terrorism" laws  
and getting criminal records for bullshit reasons.  Citizen  
journalists and video artists, take care...  All your freedom are  
belong to us.

Anybody care to comment on the state of our nation, when a Adult Swim
character shuts down a bridge?

*eyes roll* How these lightboards were mistaken for bombs, is beyond
my comprehension.
