For those who didn't view the pixelled/non pixelled bits last night:

Can Brisbane afford Underground Cross River Road Tunnel/s?

Naked protesters cycle into strife http://tinyurl.com/d98dt
A PACK of nude cyclists rode through Brisbane's city centre yesterday to protest the Brisbane City Council's proposed north-south bypass tunnel.

But the group's ride was cut short when police arrested four people for wilful exposure.

A spokesman for the protest group Communities Against the Tunnel said it was only the beginning of a long campaign to get ratepayers debating the tunnel's benefits.

"These tunnel plans are actually going to increase the amount of traffic in the city in the long term," a protester who gave his name only as Alex said. "We just think the tunnel is a really silly idea and we would like to encourage the residents of Brisbane to think what they could do with $7 billion."

He said Brisbane should follow Paris and London's lead in trying to eliminate cars in the city centre.

Brisbane City Council Transport and Major Projects chairman Graham Quirk said he did not believe the protesters had been exposed to the tunnel's full benefits.

"Putting traffic underground in the council's view will produce a much better outcome in local communities than having to widen streets on the surface and create all the trauma of resumptions along long strips of roadway," Cr Quirk said.

He said he would encourage the protesters to gain a little more knowledge about the side benefits the tunnel would bring.

Alex said the protest had been received well by passersby and he felt it had been a "joyous campaign".

"This is not just an in our backyard protest, this campaign is just the beginning," he said.

"It was a success in the sense that it raises awareness about the issue, even if we have just created some kind of debate about it.

"I mean the interaction we have had today as we have been riding along has been wonderful."

Police would disagree. They gave three men and a woman notices to appear for wilful exposure.

A police spokeswoman said two were stopped near the Botanic Gardens while another two were apprehended in the city, between Albert St and King George Square.

They will appear in the Brisbane Magistrate's Court on June 2

I am wondering if the police looked at the right parts to identify these people if they appear in court in the nude.

The worst part is getting the ink off after making the prints.
