Not sure where this should sit

It's kind of political (I think).

Gary Mckinnon. Does the U.K. deciding not to extradite him to the Land Of The Free matter to anyone? It just might be 'our' politicians showing extraordinarily good timing. With the US elections just 3 weeks away, unless one of the Presidential candidates talks about him will anyone care a rats arse about Gary Mckinnon? Add in the settling in time after the election and it will be old news anyway.

One thing interests me. Where was the crime committed? The U.K. or the U.S.A.? The hacker lived in Glasgow. Hacking is a crime in the UK. The effect of his hacking was felt in the USA. Hacking is a crime in the USA. Was the plan to flip a coin, or keep a 747 refueled while with judge and jury on board it flew in circles over the Atlantic?
