Over the past year I guess I may have got the point of perhaps half a dozen of Beatrix Campbell's columns, though I think Ihave got the gist of most of the rest.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who reads her column through several times, trying to understand what a 'cathartic national conversation' and 'the importance of testimony as a vector' mean ('To the point', 10 November).
Don't get me wrong, though - I love her zest for what she believes is right and for the way she tweaks my brain cells. Bring it on, Beatrix!
