Many thanks, will37. May you have a string of all-corrects beyond your wildest dreams.

Should we be concerned that The Times have alerted more Muggles to our existence?
I've dined out for many years on the Sondheim/Bernstein connection, but not sure just why this is noteworthy - just a propter hoc connection to sublime aesthetic sensibility, I suppose.

Are any other prominent creative geniuses who also obsessively squander their precious mental resources on this most ephemeral of time-wasters known?
(Apart from me, of course...)

Quixote, in answer to your opening question - no.

In answer to your closing question - I haven't a clue, I haven't bumped into many prominent creative geniuses recently.

Malone, Quixote,
I read somewhere , years ago, that Salman Rushdie was an aficionado.

THanks, SimpleSimon, but does he 'obsessively squander...'?

PS You can tell I don't like sweeping, multi-faceted questions! I fare better with multiple choice or simply Yes/No options. Simple minds like simple things...

Malone,

You are far from being a simple mind 😳😂

Thanks, SimpleSimon - in many respects I'm as simple as they come (and maybe we were swapped at birth, maybe I should have your user name?)

Malone,

Merely a sobriquet of course - there’s really 2 of us ancient fogies - celebrating our emerald anniversary soon (55 years) 😨

Ahhh...

SimpleSimon, thanks. Congratulations - to you both - on your forthcoming millstone, sorry milestone!

PS Sorry, the typo was genuine - then I decided I liked it.


Quixote, I hope that's a sigh of relief 'Ahhh...'?
