I think all the tube users I know are in full scale denial about the olympics, not one of them agrees with my prediction that it will be full scale on hell on earth down in them tunnels.
I think they've all been institutionalised. they know no better, the bodies will pile up at the bottom of the escalators as their peers queue ever onwards at the top oblivious to the crushing fate that awaits them below.
Oh man full scale denial sounds about right. I work in the London Bridge area and the intermittent times I have used the tube that station simply cannot cope at rush hour, to the point were they have to close access into the platforms to try manage the sheer numbers....add to that mix a multitude of tourists (plenty of them in the summer anyhow due to Tower Bridge, Borough market and HMS Belfast being in the vicinity) and Olympic spectators and we do indeed have an 'hell on earth' scenario.
I really feel for Tube users :(, hopefully a decent portion will come round to the idea of cycling on a regular basis as a consequence.
