Dear Smallblueplanet,
Yes, it may well be a pile of mud (and chalk), but if we can't do something about it - and about the supposed learned assemblage who promote themselves as the caretakers of our heritage - then we (the Great British Public) may as well lie down; and I for one refuse to do so.
Oh, and it's totally off-topic, but:
UK'S TOP 10 POP RICH LIST - 2003
1. Sir Paul McCartney - £760m
2. Lord Lloyd-Webber - £400m
3. Sir Cameron Mackintosh - £335m
4. Madonna £227m
5. Robert Stigwood - £199m
6. Sir Mick Jagger - £175m
7. Sir Elton John - £170m
3 of the so-called "stars" attending this apparent outpouring of global angst - in order to highlight world poverty - are worth (at 2003 prices) a combined total in excess of £1000m - and the good ol' General Public are going to have to put there hands in their pockets for a text lottery at £1.50 a pop plus network charges: give me a break!
Peace
Pilgrim
