Nicholas Albery reports --
: Richard Ross-Langley of St Albans, UK, proposes that arguments over sharing
: out property from a Will could be avoided by his procedure whereby
: executors auction the property amongst those eligible, with the highest
: bidders' payments going into a pool to be shared out at the end.
