Sir, – I understand that one of the exciting possibilities which may be revealed to us as a result of the work of those good people at the CERN institute is the existence of a parallel universe.
I believed I had woken up in one on July 4th when not once, but twice, presenters on RTÉ radio wished us “A happy Fourth of July”. Also, we were told that the fireworks display in Galway as part of the boat race was to celebrate “Independence Day”. Am I missing something here? You have a nice day now! – Yours, etc,
