Scope and content
Is a member of a small actuarial discussion group that encourage members to speak on any non-actuarial topic in which they are interested. Wishes to speak on the Royal Institution, and to include a 'layman's summary' of FH's recent lecture. Is 'reluctant' to base his remarks only on his recollections, and understands that the RI cannot obtain a transcript of the lecture 'for some long time ahead'. Therefore makes the 'saucy request' of asking for a Xerox of FH's notes, or for references to published material.
