2011.08.02 07:00 - Being entertained

The Guardian for this meeting was Riddle Sideways. The comments are by Riddle Sideways.  Who thinks that title MUST have been used before :)
Long ago, in childhood there was a TV on in the room.  One of those very artsy, avant garde plays broadcast by Hallmark.  One character sat in a completely white room.  The main character could not leave the box.  Many others could come enter and tell stories, deliver lines, act out, etc and then leave.
If you know what play this is...  please do not tell...  memory of it is best.

Riddle Sideways: Good Morning, Listener Master

FcSeeker Resident: his daughter is a dancer and works around the world
FcSeeker Resident: he saw how she is one who spreads the 'old' culture
Riddle Sideways: funny, how one sees spreading as diluting core culture and another sees it as enriching the rest
FcSeeker Resident: that sure is in practice to enrighing
FcSeeker Resident: enriching
Bruce Mowbray: "Including" more and more people and cultures is often seen as "diluting" - -- but I see it as being welcomed into the flow.
