[edit] Issues
- I moved this just to the person's name - we generally don't use honorifics in most article titles (kings and other nobles seem to be the only major exception).
- When the article says Post Office, shouldn't that be Royal Mail?
- The link of "criticism" ending up at engineering isn't ideal (it's pejoratively known as a "surprise link"). Someone clicking on a link called "criticism" should end up at something roughly to do with criticism, not at the (very general) topic of engineering. If there isn't an article for empirical engineering or engineering criticism, I think the sentence should be reworked so that an explicit engineering link would make sense.

Good move and thanks. Engineering now in place. Yes, although Gower himself refers to the Post Office, I think mail coaches, packet boats etc. were commissioned and operated by Royal Mail and thus claimed protection from the Crown. Have sorted out signature thing, I think! Fenton Robb 00:02, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
