So exceedingly strange for me to be commenting on this. I was once a member of the support group around Copenhagen Suborbitals, Peter Madsen's first space rocket venture, which also had the submarine in hand, and from which he was later ejected for erratic behaviour, vile explosions of temper, and general pain-in-the-ass-ness.

Around Christmas 2010, in the rocket assembly hangar - inevitable known as the HAB - I had a long talk with a leading support group member. Two things I very clearly remember from tat conversation: I was directed towards Hacker News as a serious forum (have been here ever since), and much more to the present point was told "With all his energy and dynamics and creativity, Peter must have a dark side that we know nothing about".

We were not to know that the dark side was a terrifying psychopathic personality, now exposed in all its gore. Danish police is now reopening various old macabre murder cases. I shall be unsurprised if the charming, charismatic Peter Madsen I have met on several occasions turn out to be the craziest serial killer in Danish history.

My rage is barely containable.
