I have a couple of queries regarding the current poll. Firstly, it asks us to vote for our favourite "broadway" musical. By saying "broadway" I assume that means that angled strip in NYC around which most of the NY theatres are. So, does that mean we are being asked "Which of the current musicals on Broadway now (or recently) do you prefer?"? If so, I don't get it because there ain't too many of us here in godzown what get to go to too many "broadway" musicals. The voter base would be very small.

If the question should have been a more general "Which of these is your favourite musical?", why is there not somewhere for Leah and me to vote "None"?

Music, dance and theatre are all wonderful, equally valid and important artforms. I find it difficult to understand why some people think they become less valid when all three are combined. All I can think is that if these "musical bashers" could actually sing and dance it could be a completely different story.

Yeh for musicals!

To all the bashers: May the tunes to a hundred Rogers and Hammerstein songs get stuck in your heads:

Happy talky talk in happy talk, talk about things you'd like to do...... Getting to know you, getting to know all about you.... Walk on, walk o o o on, with hope in your heart...... Oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beautiful day, I got a beautiful feeling, everything's going my way.....
