PLEASE SPAM SOME OTHER SITE WITH YOUR AT&T PROPAGANDA. WERE NOT BUYIN IT.
I am SHOCKED that this has hit the mainstream media in America. Everyone I know cant afford the monitered burgler alarm or the monthly fee for it, so unfortunately MANY homes and businesses will be at risk. Not to mention that response alarms can be negated by knowing the approximate response time of the officers, and being somewhat faster in-and out.
This time is increased exponentially if one has researched the Shift-Change times of the officers.
That being said, let me first say that I have personally learned how to do this (for educational purposes...) years ago when the dutch 1st went public with it, so I know what Im talking about. Unfortunately, experienced locksmiths seem to know the LEAST about this method, as evident by the naive 15 year locksmith posting earlier. This method is EXTREMELY effective, very fast, and the keys are VERY easy to make, with NO risk to the damaging the lock as another previous poster erroneously stated. Can you handle the truth? Well here it is;
1.There is NO such thing as a 'bump' key from a home depot. Once you get the key cut, its not done. You need to take it home and with a fine file, file down 1 or 2 mm from the point of the key, and also from the 'shoulder of the key. this enables the kety to go just a pinch further into the lock to smack the tumblers up.
2. To the person worrying about finding expensive blanks for 1$, this is for you; ANY key can be made to do this. You dont need a blank, Any key, wether its already been cut, or whatever, CAN be made into a maximum depth cut key. And you dont need a locksmith or Home Depot, Any key cutter, manual or auto, can cut whats called a '999 key'.
Hey, dont complain about how small England is, The British after all pretty much USED TO own most of America, and could have owned it to this day, if the MIGHTY BRITISH EMPIRE hadnt been whalloped and sent packing by a bunch of ragtag rebels. You had your chance to fly the union jack on american soil, and you blew it miserably. Went from the mightiest empire in the world, to today among the weakest.

And dont you dare include Ireland in your rant either,
The English plundering and invading the soverign state of Ireland was no different than Saddam invading Kuwait! Get out of Ireland and let their people be a free nation!
BRITS OUT!
Hey there whole country is like the size of ONE state!
Wouldnt you figure that they could learn an area that small without a GPS? Oh well what would you expect from a nation of alcoholics who riot over soccer games and dont even care about their own teeth!
If you know that its way off topic, THEN WHY ARE YOU POSTING THAT HERE?? Were talking about retarded tea-sippin Brits who cant drive. Theres no doubt some forum you could google to blab about wrecked Jettas to your hearts delight.
My son recomended this site to me, and for this story I am vey glad because I am TOTALLY DUMPING all of my Phillips stock as we speak. If this is really true then Ill hardly be the only one.
I would rather be Ruvved Rong time.
She ruv you rong time!

Just add battery!
Antonio Banderas would never wear a pink shirt, not even the asian version. Bet he cooks a mean bowl of shrimp fried rice though,
Yo, that slope is Funky Fresh!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
