The phone-in subject was: tell me how you will manage without me for four weeks if I have a throat operation, and vote on whether I should have the operation. [Kind answer: I can manage quite well not listening to any prat who thinks anyone is remotely interested in his temporary health problems Unkind answer: if there's a chance it could go badly wrong I'd vote for you having it] He also exhibited his normal complete lack of ability in handling interviews. A good interviewer will interrupt an interviewee if he goes off-topic or starts waffling or giving a party political speech. Bacon just interrupts because he disagrees with the person and wants to get his own view across again and again. Very annoying. -- Hungerdunger To reply by email, remove the MARX from my address
