Your Letters

14:53 UK time, Wednesday, 12 September 2007

Regarding the article about , would it be overly cynical of me to suggest the headline could have been "More Research Needed, say grant-hungry scintists"?
Bob Peters, Leeds, UK

"Kenya wants Tsavo back". Who, like me, was relieved to discover that the offending man-eaters Kenya want back are now dead?
Andrea, Scafati (Darkest Italy)

Regarding today's , it would be helpful to know what percentage of beer-lovers are actually old enough to have experienced pubs in the 1970s. As someone who is (and certainly did), I'm firmly in the other 38%.
Rory, Sutton Coldfield UK

Damn you Sam from Leeds (Tuesday's letters). After yawning through the report on breakfast news, and again after seeing the headline on here, you've just set me off again. I'm evidently far too empathetic for my own good. Even worse, writing this message is making me yawn even more. Does that mean I have empathy with myself?
Andy Donovan, Sheffield

Steve (Tuesday's letters), a 'non-authorised' term-time holiday is actually where parents take their children on holiday so as to avoid the more expensive summer holiday periods. In effect it's the parents playing truant.
Laurece, London

Steve (Tuesday's letters), regarding the five million unauthorised school days off per year. So if we have about 15 million school age children, that means on average 1 in 3 has one day off a year. Chill out Grandad.
Jamie Campbell, Sheffield

Could the Monitor persuade the 91Èȱ¬ News website to put dates on their list of most e-mailed stories? I keep getting caught by out-of-date stories. For example, "Russian to boost births" is recent, but "Jogging your way to " is February 2006 (I did read the rest of the stories as well).
Jo Edkins, Cambridge
