Sorry to those not on FB. I posted my story idea last night and MM responded that "I might just be psychic!" The picture they posted from the set could be a garment factory being mobbed or as someone on FB commented, it could also be the dock workers making their stand.
Now I have to wait ALL SUMMER and maybe till after Christmas to see how this all turns out.

I think you are right because the timeline doesn't work for it to be dock workers, not unless it took months to locate them...

You don't need to join a group. Just post on their main page. I'm not saying anything will come from it but it doesn't hurt to try. They are about 99.9% more likely to see it on there than here. I don't know if they even know this forum exists. I think they know the site exists but whether they read it very often or not is another story. They likely have interns or assistants read MM related things on the internet just to get a feel for what is being said. They probably didn't have any trouble keeping abreast of threads on this site until snacky started posting!! haha! She's so prolific, they probably had to get another intern!!

Does this mean lovemondays is psychic? D:
Edit: lol, apparently I'm also psychic, because I posted my comment from "Recent Posts" before I saw the replies with the Facebook "psychic" reply.

The Toronto Star had a very interesting article today about an exhibit at the Bata Shoe Museum called Fashion Victims: The Pleasures and Perils of Dress in the 19th Century. In the exhibit, 'which focuses on the sartorial mores of the 19th century, questions arise about how far we will go to jeopardize our health and the safety of others when it comes to expressing an idea of beauty...the term fashion victim was...very much in use at the time'. What is truly astonishing is that fashion created victims because of the chemicals, we now know to be toxic, used to colour or treat different fabrics and materials. Examples: A wildly popular shade of green was made with arsenic. Queen Victoria even had a dress in that shade. The silk was absolutely saturated with it. Coal tar sludge was used make a beautiful mauve dye. It was so toxic that some wearers were know to develop such severe skin reactions it became known as the "mauve measles". Beaver pelts were treated with mercury before being made into hats. Other fashions identified as health hazards include corsets and the very tight footwear that often required the woman to pre-bind her feet (similar to the Asian practice). It occurs to me that the concept of toxic clothing could be an interesting plot line...a woman dies, the husband is suspect, but it takes all of William, Julia and Emily's knowledge of fashion and chemistry to figure out that the culprit was her clothing. The writers could even take it a step further by having Julia and/or Emily take up the cause of raising public awareness of the issue. That plotline could work ... except, it's a little lacking in flavour. What if, the woman dies as you said, and, Murdoch manages to pinpoint the culprit (clothes) almost immediately. But then, a series of bloody murders, including that of the woman's husband, occur, and Murdoch discovers that both the husband and wife have a history in jail, where they were rather unpopular with the inmates, most of which that walk free. There only seems to be one plausible suspect, and after some investigation (all evidence points to them), they are arrested and hung. But then, it turns out they were innocent. And we could have a cliffhanger ending where Murdoch realizes something, but the audience doesn't know what.

That sounds so cool! I want to see that episode, then I can say, "I knew that was going to happen!"
Lovemondays you're a genius! I want to hear your other ideas about future episodes. Then we can officially determine whether you are psychic or not!
Anyone else agree with me?!

I think it's awesome that Lovemondays spotted a potential MM plot in the newspaper. The MM creative team probably had inside knowledge of the upcoming museum exhibit, and I bet they did draw on that for the episode in question.
Or Lovemondays has psychic powers.
*cue spooky music*
