The PM's antenna farm radiations coupled with a nattering nymph's Nintendo DS
in row 13 caused both metal-encased & shielded ECC units to go bananas.
When reporting the ATM anomaly to the bank I was met with the same cynical reaction. The reaction was that it was impossible radiation from a mobile phone could cause the ATM to fail. "It was just a matter of coincidence . . . . ."

At least I'll give credit to the AAIB as they did investigate the possibility of EMI/HIRF affecting BA38. Question remains though if all conditions at the time could ever have been duplicated and if all essential data was recorded. For now I will wait until the final report has been released.
