Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us. If you are having problems logging in, please try a different browser or platform, if problems persist then email support@rlfans.com

It has at least made me think. When you flag an ambition for integration, it raises questions in my mind about diversity with equality… which in turn makes me think, somewhat uncomfortably, about the old Separate but Equal legal doctrine in the US. As I say, it is complicated.
