Britain without its aging Hero's is becoming ever more Alone and Sader - one would hope for a new Hero... to instill enthusiasm throughout the Country - but where is that person ?

That's where I learned about her. Yet tnere's still the uninitiated dum-dums who think 'Pink Floyd' is just about the so-called 'drug culture'.

RIP Dame. You're meeting again with some of the war dead you sang to.
