A letter is not a Phd thesis

Dear Editor,

I think I may be a pioneer! Short sharp letters to the editor making the point in two paras or less. Boredom and ADHD are ever present dangers. I am delighted to see some editing of letter length in recent weeks. Some of the windbaggery and dictionary preening cut out pre-publication. Keep it up. Short and sweet and (hopefully) funny. A letter is not a Phd thesis….

Yours,

John ‘Bill Cotton/Reform’ Mair
