Ten years ago, I got new glasses. Two weeks later, a retired ophthalmologist drove his car through my left leg and a month after that, from a wheelchair - fortunately temporary - the idea for the Cultural Press Bureau was born.

To stop the action at the dramatic climax, to take the sting out of the wasp, or the fuse out of the powder keg....
