It is unfair to Mills and Boon, Roger.  We already have a couple of choice entries from what might be called "postcolonial studies/museology".  The pretentious
jargon is stunning.  Few of us have ever read a page of Mills and Boon we couldn't at least understand.

Speaking of museum labels, I came across one the other day at the new Museum of New Zealand.  It was a rugby shirt worn by a national sports star.  The label
helpfully explained that it was "made of cloth."
