I may utilize Mssr. Vestris' name as my part of my online nom de plume, but if we are related, the bloodline has gotten awful thin by now. But as to my contributions, Tom, despite your kind words - which I do appreciate - possession of verbal wit has no place in the studio, in my experience. I would gladly trade 50 IQ points (oh, OK, maybe 25) just to hold my own in ballet class.
Last week, I was watching a program on PBS's Nova on the "Mysteries of the Brain." It stated that the parietal lobe is where coordination and spatial ability originate. I said to myself, "Well, that's the explanation: I have no parietal lobe!"
