"There's an intriguing little quote from BBC Business Editor Robert Peston on the BBC News site here...

"Mortgage banks and building societies such as Alliance & Leicester and Bradford & Bingley, as well as the bigger banks, have seen much of the money withdrawn from Northern Rock"

Now why would Mr Peston single out A&L and B&B, out of all the players on the field, as being destinations for savers fleeing Northern Rock ? = An implied endorsement of those two banks by the State Broadcasting Company
Could someone else be worried that the knives will be out for those two institutions this week?

Total LoonThink™, obviously

And remember, it's only subliminal if you don't notice."
