Hey Chris! Thanks for the plug on your blog. You'll finally get to see the opera. It grew quite a bit since the 2002 workshop you participated in. Hope you and Wendy enjoy it (albeit on tape -- hope your VCR is clean!) So good to see you again last week -- all the best for continued success on the Operas To Go. J.
