I approve of anything that gets people to read though.
Great links Sky - as always. Yours is one of the names I always hope to see as the most recent poster on this thread. I now know who Alessandro Moreschi is. It's bound to come up in conversation at some point. Well - I say bound to come up, not for poor old Alessandro.

*sniff* thanks S.G.
Hey, S.G. You'll hate this one. I did but it must be watched for art sake.
The Academy-AwardŽ nominated animated short-film tells the story of a lonely inventor, whose colorless existence is brightened only by dreams of the carefree bliss of his youth.
By day, he is trapped in a dehumanizing job in a joyless world. But by night, he tinkers away on a visionary invention, desperate to translate his inspiration into something meaningful.
When his invention is complete, it will change the way people see the world. But he will find that success comes at a high price, as it changes himself, as well.
