*shrug* at least he's done something that has benefitted a lot of people. Unlike that hedge fund bloke who had benefitted, well, the Tory Party, to the tune of half a million. If you're going to get angry about the people on the honours list, yon Ive fella is very far from the front of the queue.

He is one of the greatest living industrial designers. Why not hand him a gong? He's a successful Brit making a big noise on the other side of the pond. The sad thing is that he probably couldn't have done it had he stayed in the UK and carried on designing.

At least hopefully the uni we both went to will get some publicity as a result ;)
