Fark Flash Mob to Laser-Pointer David Blaine

Friday 12 September, 9PM BST

Reminder for willing participants from Farker LindseyP:

• Only use lasers which are commonly found for use as pointers. These present very little to no danger unless stared at directly and intentionally. DO NOT use industrial lasers or more powerful ones designed for star pointing or light shows.
• Don't try to blind the poor guy. It's not nice. Anyway, you won't succeed, because from that distance it's impossible to aim steadily at a moving target such as his eyes. Not least because his body and pillows present a much more visible target. Visibility is what we want, for some nice pics.
• If some farkers want to meet up, fine. I'll remain 'under cover', Farkers wishing to take part should turn up *at least* 15 minutes early to scope the place out and choose a good spot. Better to spread out than all be huddled together.
• Set your watches by the UK speaking clock. It can be heard by dialling 123 from any land line including payphones. Start zapping at exactly 9:00pm Zap for 2 mins and then disperse or do as you please.,
• Better to zap intermittently than constantly, less prone to being discovered and singled out.
• Overall: Be punctual, Be Safe, and don't get nicked! The police can be a pain in the ass if they think you're acting suspiciously

From Drew:

• MSNBC has asked that someone take video so they can air a copy later. Contact Drew after the fun if you record it
