Here is Sir Humphrey's's response to my last.
Since my main point was that I generally don't have much patience with anything they say, I obviously won't respond in too much detail.

It's probably more complicated than that, and there might be a post in it later. Something for us all to look forward to.
UPDATE 10am, 13/7: (Look! An update!) Astigmatic Lemur is going around saying I have "completely rewritten" my original post. I presume he's referring to the way I removed an accidential letter 'c' from the title. Like I said, can't read too good. Would you buy and interpretation of local and world affairs from this man?
