OK, my test mailing didn't come though in Hotmail, so I unsub'd there, but
still have the Digests in Gmail. Thanks for the feedback.
As to humor, I always chuckled at the "bush with frizzled hair" in Bk VII.
Then I heard someone snicker and guffaw at it and realized that in
contemporary slang it was pretty risqué.
The "Paradise Lost" at the OSF is the play by Clifford Odets. It is
described as a long-neglected masterpiece whose theme is upheaval brought
about by the Great Depression as very timely under present economic
conditions.
