A load of Flame stuff in the news
« on: March 26, 2012, 01:54:38 PM »
It seems as though Flame (of #Flame2012 as I've been writing for the past three days - so much in fact, that my fingers are starting to bleed!) has been making a bit of noise in the news. Unsurprisingly.

You can read about it in the Herald, the Tablet, The Catholic News (official) site, ICN, ICN Again, ICN again, CAFOD Brentwood, Salesian News site, On loads of Tumblr pages, On YouTube, and in about a million other places too. Just google it.

Do you think where the Salesian News site says:

there is a lesson here about not believing that the top Google result is the person you are looking for.

Yeah, if you google 'Jack Regan' you get the Sweeney.

For those younger than me (i.e. most of you) I should explain that the Sweeney was a British cop show in the 1970s staring the great John Thaw. The title character was a rough copper called Jack Regan.

A remake with Ray Winstone is about to be released, so I'm expecting the real Jack Regan (the important one!) to slip even further down google!!

That seriously made me giggle! I needed that after a VERY long day!

Hi, Salesian News here,

thanks for pointing out the mistake! I didn't actually attend the event, I just edited the article, and I foolishly accepted the first Google result to be the correct David Wells. All corrected now, though!
