Stair on Facebook

Scots Law News has discovered that the Stair Society was preceded onto Facebook by its late eponym, James Dalrymple Viscount Stair, the "Father of Modern Scots Law", who has had his own page since early November 2009.

Stair, speaking through Edinburgh PhD student Karen Grudzien Baston, declares his interests to be law, natural philosophy and travel, and reveals that his birthday is on 29 November.  There is also a number of fine portraits of the great man.  There is no indication of whether he is "taken" or "available", or on his sexual preferences (which should probably be seen as a relief).

At the moment Stair has 5 fans, somewhat fewer than the Stair Society, which now has 52!
