Blair died today

Not as good news as some of you hoped, but Eric Blair, better known as George Orwell died 60 years ago today. A visionary man, his disgust at the direction of Government as relavent if not more so today as it ever was.

RIP

This lot must have started off with "Animal Farm" first Dave, and then progressed to their present bible.

Orwell was a very clever and far seeing man.
