Your Letters

Regarding Basil's letter about the Beafort scale not being poetic. I feel I can only respond in haiku... Calm light on new day/ Fresh breeze stirs gentle air/ Stormy hurricane
Ian, Redditch

Basil, it's poetic even in your letter. I'm just not sure if it's the actual vocabulary, elegant in its limitation, or the memory of the announcer's measured tones while I lie tucked up safe and warm being glad I'm not out there in the teeth of it. Either way, your summary has greatly enhanced my understanding and appreciation.

"English league teams win roughly 60% of their home games versus 40% of away games, on average." So home teams win 60% of the time, and away teams win 40% of the time, so presumably nobody ever draws?
James H, York
