Wow, really????  THAT is something that won't come out in your average
uni lecture on Shakespeare I'll bet!  I'm off to get a copy of the
play asap.  (and to everyone out there who will prob. tell me I can
get a copy off the web, yes I know, but I still like to think the
printed page is superior to computers!!! <grin> Allow me my delusion!)
