I wasn't. I think opera should be self sustaining and certainly not be funded by government. Funding a show with Pavarottis over inflated invoice in it is basically lining his pockets with hard earned income tax! This isn't an attack on opera, I think the same about football and folk dancing. Don't know what this has to do with Christo as he pays his own way, he can do what he likes with it. He could spend his cash on fine art that he keeps in a locked bank vault and then sit on the investment. As it is he beautifies places with it - and if you don't like it you get your park back or your building unwrapped pretty quickly anyway. The people that object are usually sound like they find it difficult to allow others to enjoy themselves if they don't share their own viewpoint. -- Simon Troup Digital Music Art ------------------------- Finale IRC channel server: irc.chatspike.net port: 6667 channel: #Finale ------------------------- _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
