Re: Echelon test
I know two guys who regularly used to sign off e-mails and chat messages with "Prince Charles, Semtex, IRA, Bomb"...!

Making a one minute call to a mobile without saying anything seems to be noticed as well.

The Government also have a rather large satellite station down near Bude in Cornwall, which is apparently part of GCHQ. A group of friends and I were sitting outside in a car (actually trying to find where we were on a map.
I have to admit seeing that many satellite dishes (all sizes from 30 cms to 20 or 30 metres) was an impressive sight. Unfortunately, my friend was stupid enough to take a photo. We thought we had been seen, as I noticed a CCTV camera pointing at us. Then one of the 30 meter dishes started moving and pointed toward us. Those things can move extremely quickly considering their size.
We drove away from there like a bat out of hell. It was probably just moving to track a satellite, but it did scare the **** out of all of us.

I can see it now...
TECH1: Hey look, there's some tourists outside!
TECH2: Heh ... looks like they're lost, they're wondering why they can't see us on that map.
TECH1: Oh, hang on, one of them's taking a photo of us.
TECH2: Naughty naughty ... here, swing Antenna 5 in their direction, that should scare the sh*t out of 'em.
TECH1: OK, here goes .... yup, they's a runnin'
(geeky sniggers)
