Ard Mhaca

         As I recall, I seemed to demonstrate very little in the way of common sense in my youth, and did an awful lot of stupid things - often, I suspect, because of the unaccutomed degree of freedom which I enjoyed in England. So I don't consider that I have the right to castigate anyone - lumpers or otherwise, for their follies.

Because there seems to have been a consistent pattern to them I do, however, feel obliged to look for possible explanations for them...
