Vale Shirley

Ok, so I am on record as excusing Shane Keith's indescretions because "he's just a sportsman." My gist was that there was somewhat of a mind/body split that enabled genius of the body to excuse a lack lustre mind. This theory falls apart when we consider the incredible Shirley Strickland de la Hunty whose passing is being mourned tonight. Not only did she excel on the track (after only taking it up seriously in her 20s) she studied nuclear physics and went on to be an academic.

Well played Shirley.
