At least they caught them, in Africa you just slip a note and everyone stays quiet.

Dude, I watched Ross Kemp On Gangs in Nigeria (recorded on Sky +) earlier today and was about to bring it up. That has spooked me out somewhat...

You're right though. On the BBC website not too long ago it was West European computer & electronic waste sent to African 'landfill'. It happens all the time, but at least they've followed it up.

that's probably how "swine flu" happened, miracurously.
