Quote: Without a thermos, his coffee frequently goes cold, according to news media reports. Quote: the stab-resistant safety pen he has been provided, “a nightmare of a tool” that causes his hand to cramp. The pen is “an almost indescribable manifestation of sadism,” he wrote, though presumably it did not prevent him from composing his lengthy letter of complaint. A prison spokeswoman said Mr. Breivik was given an electric typewriter on Friday. It was not given in response to Mr. Breivik’s letter, the spokeswoman said, according to The Associated Press. “I highly doubt that there are worse detention facilities in Norway,” Mr. Breivik wrote.

No animals were harmed in the making of this photograph. Four legged ones, anyway. I think the itchy toilet paper approach is better, though. And ideally, NOT such luxurious surroundings while in prison. What's really disturbing, is that he's only been sentenced to ~ 20 years! @ john d'oh. I don't agree about not giving him publicity. This could not possibly do anything but turn him (even more) into the most hated person in Norway and internationally. He WILL get his, eventually! Not enough, but - something. (What's troubling, is how it makes the families of his victims feel. )
