    Green Dot?....it's the little red dot you need to worry about. Especially now as laser pointers are being used to 'blind' airline pilots on final approach.

    Is that the same Dot as we all love to see at a certain tennis tournament in South West London? Has she gone ecofriendly?

    As to computers messing with our brains, researchers need only peruse this blog to see some interesting examples. And, yes, I do include myself. ;o)

    Adored listening to Chris Vallance interview on the little green dot.

    Chris is another jeremy Paxman in the making!

    Eddie should take note - well perhaps not.

    Well done though Chris.

    Advance warning:

    If anyone on PM this afternoon refers to the returning Olympic competitors as "heroes" I will throw something at my radio.

    Members of the military, firefighters, nurses, carers... *they* are heroes, not people involved in over-egged sports days.

    May I welcome to the PM Blog Mr. Chris Ledgard who, as the author of the newsletter, tells us he will be at the helm tonight?

    Somehow, listening to WatO today, I doubt the Olympics will steal the show - there's too much else happening on the eastern front .....

    SSCat (4) Are you good enough, at throwing things, that you are sure you would hit the target? Personally I am going to make sure! If they make that "heroes" mistake, I am going to throw the radio at something!!

    Very sad that all Britain can think of to celebrate success is a pop concert.
