When I taught EFL, I would go to the pub with students of age, and they would all make a specific effort to only speak English in front of me, out of respect for me, but I thought it was embarassingly (for me) hospitable of them.

I assumed...
That he'd got Molly to help create a realistic prosthesis of his face, then after Moriarty died he affixed said lifelike face, then positioned him on the ledge and moved his arms realistically from behind whilst on the phone to John. From John's position on the street looking up it was realistic enough, it was realistic enough when he saw him up close on the pavement but was kept back by the crowd, then Molly could tidy up the paperwork without any questions.
Of course that's just my theory, it's probably full of holes and I don't frequent any forums on the subject so I'm sure this has been suggested before!

I agree
though I think Wikipedia and friends' "protest" is both facile and pointless, and is most likely to convince bosses around the world that productivity really does go up if people can't get onto Wikipedia. And in the meantime, the American lawmakers will carry on regardless (meaning SOPA won't go through anyway - though God knows what will happen next year.)
not that it has a particular point to make but more because it's wiki's 24 hour protest that got in the way of me clicking a wiki link further down the board.
But yes, SOPA is gash.

Take that, James Wales!
When you go to a wiki page, it flashes the content before you get the black page. If you're *really* quick with the print screen button, you can still read it. The top bit anyway.
But only because it is extreme and the fall out will be ultimately harmful. There are already laws in place that protect against piracy, and rightly so IMHO. I have great sympathy for people whose livelihood is creative, and then get ripped off. Often however it is 'big business' that is screwing small guys, whilst ripping off ideas that should have intellectual protection and recycling them in adverts etc for corporate gain. Unfortunately 'America' (and I don't want to use lazy stereotyping of 'Americans') has a habit of attempting to impose its will on the rest of the world when it has no legal, moral or ethical right to do so. Priciples of intellectual protection? good. SOPA? bad. Murdoch? self interested cunt of the highest order.
