    Well, John, I'm really not quite sure what point 
    you're making here.  (That's not intended to be snide.  
    I genuinely don't understand.)

    I didn't see Braveheart.  Celtic myths have already done 
    too much damage in recent years for me to encourage 
    their propagation by some silly Australian mummer 
    with a painted face. 

    Trainspotting I found original, powerful & funny.  
    If you tell me young Americans were encouraged to take 
    heroin by seeing it then they must be more perversely 
    suggestible than even I had imagined.

    I'm sorry you find the world tastes like a shit sandwich.  
    Anyone who does my job can hardly fail to recognise 
    the sorrow that's the lot of very many people.  
    I'm not one of them, though.  I've had some bad times - 
    almost all the results of my own folly - but apart from 
    these relatively brief moments I've had one hell of a time 
    & would be chuffed beyond measure to be starting all 
    over again.  

    What a shame my writing has such a debilitating effect
    on everyone.  It must be my Scots predeliction for 
    the gallows.  I should really try to convey more of that 
    exhilaration & buoyancy which seems to infect everyone 
    when they meet me personally.

    Scottie B.
