| Facts from Oliver Letwin | Emotion makes us human, sex is more fun than chess: yes, I couldn't agree more :-) Intelligence also makes us human. Intelligence is not a by-product of our emotions, it's something separate,… [view in situ] |
OK, fair enough. Thanks for telling me about these things - I obviously need to look into it all a bit more. I'm not sure the UK people "want all their service as cheaply as possible" - we are… [view in situ] |
