Madam, – Good for Aidan Murphy (November 4th) and other readers who get The Irish Timesvia Kindle. However, I wonder what will become of those traditional uses for newspapers: lining the budgie's cage and the cat's litter tray, making a paper hat to wear when painting the ceiling and putting under the lino to be discovered (and laughed at) in years to come? Indeed the device, in spite of its name, wouldn't even be much help in lighting the fire. – Yours, etc,
