When it came to the Middle East, Marney and myself were different ends of the spectrum, apart from that I got on ok with her for the most part.
However I said it at the time and i'll say it again, it didn't matter how intelligent and good her points were, the fact that she would go off the deep end ruined her arguments. It's proven here, because that is nearly all she is remembered for, not here intelligence, and I think at times she was probably one of the best posters on the entire board.
