    Haven't seen another post on this,

    you'll have seen news that wax musuem was robbed, lots of headlines about teletubbies and hitler being robbed

    sounds pretty cool place for rave but if they wrecked and stole all the dummies and costumes and stuff thats pretty bad
    But museum manager Kay Murray said she expected to announce a new location and reopening plans next month, although she admitted not knowing where the money to fix all the damage would come from.

    She estimated the uninsured loss at 1 million euros ($A1.65 million) and said some of the clothing - particularly the rebel leaders' donated uniforms - were irreplaceable.

    The warehouse was ransacked in mid-June.

    Murray said she was speaking out now because the national police force, the Garda Siochana, had failed to arrest any suspects.

    She said she doubted the police theory that partying youths had been responsible, in part because nobody had seen kids carrying away the wax figures.

    "Whoever did it was looking for uniforms, because most of our uniforms were stolen," Murray said, adding, "It's not going to stop the museum reopening. It will just delay us."

    Yeah. The teletubbies walked on their own after taking a few yippers.

    What is this, mid- to late-eighties?

    When this wasn't just an emoticon, but a sign of the times

    Apparently there's a "nu" rave.

    Nu of course being the prefix used to denote misguided kids misapplying legislated nostalgia. See also "nu-metal".
