Hey Laurel, in what I hope to be a new feature to the site, I've written a comprehensive biography of Juve and France Legend Michel Platini, it's long so I can understand if you don't have the time to look at it but otherwise I'd really appreciate your opinion on it.

Just drop me a line when you publish and I'll check it out.

Anything that I change that you don't like, you are more than entitled to change back or modify.

It's YOUR work and I will only attempt to enhance it, not change it.

Keep at it.

Enjoyed your last work. If you need an edit on your next piece, drop me a line and we'll push it to the front of the line.

Do you have a website for your photography work?

Laurel, you just keep writing whatever you like. Debate and discussion is the heart of B/R and you've given us all something to consider.

No subject is tabu on B/R and we look forward to more eye opening work from you.

Keep at it.

There will be no leaving, it's not in the cards. You'll be needed for later projects on B/R.

Let's continue this discussion between you, Paul, Haydon and Laurel on Monday.

Sarah has heaps of work to do outside moderating this discussion and we've completely lost our way in the F1 section. There are works to be edited, pieces to be read and writers to be mentored.

Set this aside for now.

FOX news actually reported a stronger white vote for Obama than the past 3 white canidates. FOX news is considered the conservative news. I am not sure about true democaracy but the bells of equal opportunity in America are ringing loud and proud.
