Yes, it is worth listening to on a repeat, Radio Three BBC if you missed it!!!!! <p>"There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments, and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance -- that principle is contempt prior to investigation."
