On this morning's phone-in on BBC Radio Five Live, about the furore 
about Prince Harry wearing a Nazi uniform to a fancy dress party, the 
host, Victoria Derbyshire, read a history of the swastika's use in 
eastern religions -- I thought "that sounds familiar", and sure enough 
it turns out to be the last paragraph of the introduction of our 
[[Swastika]] article, with a couple of sub-clauses omitted.

You can hear it on "Listen again" at 
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/fivelive_aod.shtml?morning# until 
tomorrow's show goes up -- click the +15 minutes button three times as 
soon as the programme begins, and you'll be right in the middle of the 
quote.
