Judges and professors - Ships passing in the night?



" For a long time the relationship between judges and academics in England and Wales (which, for convenience and out of no disrespect for the Welsh, I shall refer to as "�England') was that of ships passing in the night; ships that merely occasionally spoke to each other, with distant voices, before returning to silence."
