***Have you looked at the quiz referenced? It's really quite fascinating! ***

Agreed, Harry. I did take a hit because the question about Peter Sutcliffe was ambiguous. (I covered the murders and his trial, by the way and interviewed the family and friends of victims as well has his own family and friends [with the exception of wife, Sonia].)

I took the question to mean: Did Sutcliffe, as a demanted beliver, feel that his actions were justified?

Certainly he did. Certainly I do not. But I answered 'yes, he was justified.' But he was justified only in the same way as a virgin-sacrificing potty sect or a manic suicide bomber in a packed McDonalds might be ... only according to his/her own insane delusions.

Cheers. Neil
