Your Letters
Thank you for your piece on the work of Sir Fazle Hasan Abed. I am ashamed to say I did not know of it, but I am now humbled by it.

The "7 billion people and you: What's Your number?" article has been at the top of the most shared list for what seems like ages. Surely almost all 7 billion of us now know our number and it won't stay there much longer?

I've mentioned many times about the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ overusing "row" in their headlines. The latest "May 'won't resign' in border row" is particularly annoying. The story behind it isn't even an argument, unless your world is so buried in Westminster that you genuinely believe that the subsequent debate is more important than the thing that precipitated it. It's not hard to think up alternate phrases to use instead of "row". Look, I'll suggest one and you can go from there: "May 'won't resign' in colossal border cock-up". There. Now for the love of god, stop it with this "row" nonsense once and for all. Please.

Apparently Italy's problems have "freaked out" the markets. Does the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ employ a 1960s hippy as a financial journalist? Can we now expect China's economy to be described as "funky" and "rad to the max"?
