A whole article about the respective images of the AUT and lecturers' union Natfhe ("Unions divided by their similarities", THES, November 13) and you still miss the essence of the thing: Natfhe has lots of beards and Socialist Worker sellers. The AUT has suits and glasses of claret. Long may the distinction prosper.
