Sir, - Like sightings of the first cuckoo, there seems to be an almost seasonal burst of letters to your paper apologising for being in agreement with the views of Kevin Myers. These letters usually begin with: "I normally don't agree/ I find myself in the unusual position of agreeing/ I would rather die or sell my family into slavery than agree with Kevin Myers's views, but on this occasion.."
Is it not time that we followed the time-honoured tradition of society legalising previously unacceptable anti-social behaviour and lowered the age for agreeing with Kevin Myers to 21? - Yours, etc., Shane Boland,
