Re: tony benn
Nothing to do with his politics but if there is a bad time to die, I think it's in the Spring
When my time comes, I hope I get to see out the Summer (If we ever have another Summer)

That only gives you a couple more months 
Understeer: when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.

Re: tony benn
I worked with one or two left wing teachers (they aren't as common as people think!) and one used to go to the talks that Benn used to do. I said I thought the man was believable when he spoke but, a few minutes after hearing him, I used to realise what a load of bull he'd actually said. I nearly fell over when the teacher agreed with me - and said that he only went to the talks because it was so funny!
I gather that he had been ill for some time, so I am glad that he is now out of the pain that he suffered. As rich said, he was honest in his opinions and didn't bow to the press like 99% (or more) of the current MPs and you can only respect him for that.
