It's nice to see that everyone instantly suspects me of wishing to tamper
with the signals. I'm just interested in if and how (THEORETICALLY) it
could be done. I thought that there must be something more to
it...otherwise I would have thought some hooligans would have tried such a
thing already. But I am most certainly not planning to try anything so
stupid, reckless and downright dangerous.

Thankyou, and please don't jump to conclusions,
