Sir, - The theory that Myles na Gopaleen will always be the editor in spirit of your editorial pages was never more pertinent than at the current time, when the constitutional theologians are crawling out of the woodwork and giving semantics a bad name. With eyes glazing, I almost made it half-way through John Rogers's article until I was woken up by his use of the word "estoppel". No , please do not explain what it means. Just get me a copy of The Best of Myles and its peerless satires on legal jargon, which is now more relevant than ever, it seems. Estop it, you're killing me. - Yours, etc.,
