You can't spell Clitheroe without spelling "heroe", and you can't spell Scunthorpe without "S" (and "horpe").

But Clitheroe is also home to the Messiah, or so he says.

The creator (of the web site, as opposed to the (alleged) Creator) says he never responded, but "the then Archbishop of York, John Habgood, and John Gummer, then a Cabinet Minister, had also received letters from the Messiah, and he sent me photocopies of their responses. The Archbishop's reply repays thought." The replies can be seen here. True enough, the Archbishop's response is a thing of beauty.
