Never clicked on your name. I see now you are a Brit. Frankly I figured you were a "English" Prof or something. Fair enough.
And now I understand why you don't understand our Bill of Rights.
No worries mate - have read enough of your posts/responses that I know you can take a ribbing!
I just posted upthread that I am going to be out for an hour or so (work, and why the heck can’t you guys have the same bank holidays as us!), but I would really like your explanation on the bill of rights thing and where I was wrong on the interpretation.
Your bill of rights is a bit like our common law, but the interpretation is not the same - to me it is sort of like the cognates between Latin and English. You get the rough idea but not the fine detail!
I like talking, sure - but I like learning more!
