Fifteen seconds of fame*
Well. According to this review on the Guardian web site of Tim Worstall’s book I am a gem. As long as that’s a Midget Gem, rather than an Iced Gem (did anybody ever like those?) I’ll mark that down in the “feel a bit smug all day” box.
Oh, and my copy arrived in the post today. Ta. However… the goddess Typo (the tenth Muse, ISTR) has intervened and Schrödinger is mis-spelt every time with an extra ö. Sigh. Now people will think I’m an illiterate.
*It used to be fifteen minutes, but with the proliferation of ‘celebrity’ and ‘reality’ shows on TV, the ration has had to be reduced.
