Delighted that one of the greats was recognised

Dear Editor,

Mair culpa. It seems that due to a production mishap you published, early, my embargoed note of congratulations to my friend Professor Clem Seecharan on his well-deserved Guyana Prize based on my inside knowledge. Apols to Clem for the red faces, thanks to this mis-step. But, I am delighted that our mothers’ land recognised one of the great scholars of Guyana. Bravo Prof.

Sincerely,

John ‘Bill Cotton/Reform’ Mair
