Star Wars fans hurt in mock sabre duel

News of the day:
Two Star Wars fans are in a critical condition in hospital after apparently trying to make light sabres by filling fluorescent light tubes with petrol.

In case they don't make it, they're good candidates for the next Darwin award.

An unrelated note: I've been way too busy to feed this blog with interesting bits and pieces written by my own. There is Aquamacs, there is my thesis research, there is an entry in this year's Document Understanding Conference (writing a program that produces a concise summary of 50 documents) and finally, I've been working on the big, very secret Project F, which will change my life dramatically. I hope I'll be able to announce it soon, maybe on June 1st.
