Okay hi guys, I'd just like to state here that when I made the remark about the hoi polloi earlier it was purely and merely a joke about what I took to be an amusingly old-fashioned Oxbridge reluctance to advertise (so common, don't you think), possibly in the same vein as the U and Non-U conversation that was going on elsewhere last week; and to distinguish between Balliol College and the rest of England (and indeed Britain) which are full of advertising, having no such scruples.
Personally I'd love to be able to go to the readings and even hear Ricks' lectures, were I in Oxford.
Greg, I'm not sure yet whether I'll be there. We can keep in touch on it.
