Re: Looked Like Merkel was Getting the Scottish Treatment
I looked up the National Curriculum and foreign language lessons could start as young as 7 with tests at 11. That’s a change from my days (we started at 10 and even that was likely the school’s decision).
The National Curriculum is compulsory, but it doesn’t have to be a modern language - so some schools might teach Latin. (I don’t think it would be that many, though).

Re: Math Joke
I think you’re inverting the logic Percy. There is nothing about the ratio of two non-integers there at all. What it is saying is that n is not expressible as the ratio of two integers - which would make it irrational.
