yeah, i loved the neil foster bit. You sort of got the impression he'd seen it all, and could put things into a good historical as well as contemporary context. You know, he didn't just say this has happened and this is how hard it is, but he'd say This has happened, it's signifucant, and here's why. In the end they just shat him off with all the courtesy you'd expect.
Ok to clear up any confusion, the problem is called River Of Life. Sorry Jim, I was keen for your name but Unclesomebody pursuaded me out of it.
