Why do you doubt me? I am rushed. I barely had time to register my annoyance
at the recollectio of this fantasy.
Sometimes AD says sensible things. Not always. This happens to be fantasy
i.e. there is no London school. Perhaps there are London schools. The
attempt has been made, unsuccessfully, to create them. They are aren't
there. And they aren't there with knobs on if based on the _teaching
practice of Mottram and Cobbing_ If you disagree, I may have more time when
I am less rushed... Deferral is not in it

PS I am just replying via the list - that way you don't get two copies of
the same thing
