They hold me in thrall.Laughing aristocrats who invented the cost-plus contract . . .Laughing aristocrats who invented the real estate broker . . .Laughing aristocrats who invented Formica . . .Laughing aristocrats wiping their surfaces clean with a damp cloth . . .Charles poured himself another brilliant green Heineken.-To the struggle!
