h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

That was the best piece of writing I've seen about streaking. It is much informative. You did leave out one major group though. You left out the Fad Streakers. many streakers in the 1970s did it for fun. I know one person who ran through Mc Donalds Naked. (That is where they came up with the saying "Would you like to biggie size that?" - okay, just a little humor)

Thank you

This entry is still in Peer Review, would you like to join the discussion?

I'll add a section on fad streakers.

Hello again

I have elaborated on your quote a little:

I know someone who did a streak through [a fast-food restaurant]. Pity it wasn't Erica Roe though.
- A h2g2 Researcher.

I can't name you (I mean your h2g2 identity), but I can give you a credit on the entry if you'd like?

I have talked about fads in the first section now, and moved some other bits around, would you like to read it through again to see if it's improved?

I welcome feedback

Annie

Tons better today than it was two days ago. I have learned more today than I did two days ago. Excellent!

This really is an excellent entry. I agree it has filled out nicely in the last two days. The only information I see that you could add is the phenomenon (fad actually) of mass streaking, which was shortlived (as fads are) and seemed to occur mainly on college campuses. I can recall, though not accurately, a radio newsman's description of a photo of a mob of men streaking down the mainstreet of a town: "It looked like they were running backwards." Unfortunately, I haven't been able to readily find the quote - but it sounds like something Howard Cosell would have said.

Again, very excellent work

Added, thanks very much!
