You are right

Mind Screw

Roald Dahl ...

There is a reason why authors write books and journalists write 2000 word articles - and this berk is the walking talking advert for it... He even manages to make Dan Brown look talented...
As to the pompous little twerps who came up with a$$book, thy time will come... give it 15 years and at least one of them will be found dead, hanging by his nuts, wearing a gannex mac and suspenders... and re-runs of the Social Network will move across the face of AppleTV.

True its not the first time that we've had a rumpstuffer at Caer Paravel - but at least the others weren't so damned obvious about it...
