What can I say? Our world would be poorer without what your imagination and wisdom gave us. Immortality? Let’s quote The Other Bard on the subject:
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
Happy 127th Birthday, dear John Ronald Reuel. Wish we could have a pint together at the Bird and Baby and drink to your health this day.
