Oh it's getting ugly News just broke about 3hours ago local time from The Guardian, and The Scottsman the pro indipendent movement has counter offers on the table now demanding autonomy- in such a way that they'd stay in scotland but yet have a some sense of indpendence.
According to news reports there's some that are demanding a recount, and small, minority saying they'll just use fences and seige weapons. And one article basicly says this is to scotland, as the Bush/Gore fiasco was to the US.
Anyone in Scottland able to coment on how acurate those reports are?
