If Vivian Linacre, David Delaney and their BWMA- and UKIP cronies have seen
that they must have exploded with anger.

Subject: [USMA:11791] Oxbridge weigh to go
Tomorrow (Saturday) is the annual Oxford v Cambridge boat race on the
Thames.
TV footage (oops) of the recent weigh-in of crew members showed the crews
facing each other as members were weighed on-by-one.
An electronic display on stage showed kilograms (only) to second decimal
place. The commentator announced the mass as per display.
Tradition meets modernity. Jolly good show.
