It is an ethical thing.

My sister was born with cancer (Neruoblastoma) and that bent her spine Scholiosis - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scoliosis ).

For years she had to wear a modern equivalent of that body brace and has a much straighter back now because of it.

Unfortunately, the only permanent treatment is spinal fusion to correct the curve.

I've not seen any police notices at sites around here, most is usually private security firms promising all manner of hell if you get caught!

Someone from the NHS'll see that picture and it'll end up back in a hospital!

Its near Preston, Lancashire right Motts? My uncle is a police officer around there, might have been caught by him =)

Its black, with an elongated cone nozzle, so one would assume its a CO2 extinguisher.

What was the infamous "soap dispenser" incident? Anyone care to fill me in? =)

A better title would have been "Death of Music"

Was there much damage from the strings giving? Or was it not really evident? On modern piano's theres about 15-20 tonnes of tension in the strings! That could do a lot of damage when they snap.
