Hear! Hear! Martyn and Syd. It is especially lacking, these days, in
the colonies, where everyone takes themselves sooooo seriously. Don't
be daunted by the resistance, though. And keep the jokes and funny
remarks coming by any means. Reminds me of an Ambrose Bierce (The
Devil's Dictionary) definition of man: "Man, n, An animal so lost in
rapturous contemplation of what he thinks he is as to overlook what
he indubitably ought to be. His chief occupation is extermination of
other animals and his own species, which, however, mlutiplies with
such insistent rapidity as to infest the whole habitable earth and
Canada."
