My respect for Prof. Mary has just risen a couple of notches.

I actually watched her BBC documentary on Roman classicism, and she performed a miracle - she made something in which I have abslutely no interest whatsoever, quite interesting.

Hat tip to the lady.

Thanks, Khandro.....a lady with not an ounce of bitterness in her....fantastic!

What a good person.

[Gromit]

A sensible lady. And clever.

[Mamyalynne]

Wonderful, she has risen above it and turned negative to positive - as said a above very clever indeed.

I love her, she's a fabulous role model for women, strong, sensible, empowered and generous in her own tranquility.
