it seemed obvious to me that the studio audience had been infiltrated
by nutters from the Citizen's Electoral Council. i suspected it when
the old woman in a white jumper in the back row started ranting about
eugenics, then had it confirmed when the young guy in the front row
went on about Lyndon Larouche (a dead giveaway that it's the CEC) and
Johannes Kepler (a rant that is also on CEC's web site), and another
guy went off on a bizarre paranoid tangent about Prince Philip and the
WWF (Prince Philip is a favourite figure of evil for these nutters, who
reckon he has a nefarious involvement/control over the insidious World
Widelife Fund).
i'm not sure if the Carbon-14 ranter was CEC or just a young-earther
creationist.

ps: bringing it vaguely back to LINK-relevance - their forum site was
down several times, and even when it was working the forum software was
really bad. not surprisingly, it was running on IIS.
