From his Times article of today:
Sherlock Holmes once, memorably, said to Dr Watson that when you rule out all the other options whatever is left, however disagreeable, must be the right course of action.
Fail!
What Sherlock Holmes said was:
"... when you have excluded the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.”
Nice 'Work' If You Can Get It...
