Marty, you weren't paying attention, I didn't say they were married to each other!

Thanks for that Heather
Stephen, I just finished a new book by Alain de Botton called The News. More or less a cynical view of the way " news ' affects the way we experience the world. He seems to believe that the news has taken the place once held by religion.

Even when religion was more a part of most people's lives (talking 1800s), news was a big part of people's lives - the difference is the way it was delivered. News hasn't replaced religion - facebook has! Or is it Google?
I thought you would have at least wished my brother a happy birthday Neville - it's a special one....

My apologies Heather. Happy Birthday to your brother.
A special one is it, you don't mean your young brother is turning 50.

He could be 21, or 30, or even 40.....

And I never said he was a young brother!
