- I second that e-motion, cris. Ready to take a lead from anyone as to
what to read, try anything once except incest and morris dancing (? did
Bax say this ?) but if it don't move, the combined NUFC and Boyzone fan
clubs (or their numerical equivalents in the poetry reading world) won't
convince me it does... And vice versa, of course.
It has to come to more than numbers, and individual responsibility is a
whole lot more than numbers.
