In naming Andrew Simpson, Cayard initially called him Bart Simpson, realised the blunder and corrected himself in the same breath. Unless Bart was Andrew's nickname, I thought it sad Cayard couldn't have made an effort to make sure of his facts. Easy enough done, I suppose, but RIP, Andrew. |

If you read the NZ herald article, it does say Andrew 'Bart' Simpson, so presumably it was his nickname. |

I hadn't read the Herald, I was just going off a TV clip. It would seem 'Bart' was a natural nickname, so I'll take back that criticism of Cayard. |
