Un chapeau pour yer letter to the editors in this week's The Economist!
To wit:

"William Boot, the brilliant creation of Evelyn Waugh in "Scoop", his satire
on newspapers and British imperial politics during the grubby 1930s, was an
amiable eccentric who succeeded in spite of himself. Flashman may have been
closer to the reality of the empire than Boot, but Boot is more endearing,
and successfully ran a counter-revolution."



I wonder what either would have made of SuperTopo?
Now I know there are at least two other readers of The Economist here
despite it being deemed right wing propaganda by the ST Politburo.

And here's Greg (GCF, above) sitting around base camp a few years ago (well, okay, a few decades ago), waiting for a couple of issues of The Economist to dry. Check out the chapeau.
