I WAS in a busy Edinburgh railway station when I was approached by two young boys.
A school assignment, they told me, required them to interview a stranger, and they wondered if I would help.
When they asked what kind of job I had, I explained that I was an ordained member of the clergy. "I'm a minister back in North America, but I guess you don't have women ministers over here, do you?"
"Oh, yes, we do!" they chorused "We have Maggie Thatcher!"

I liked her. A lot.
