Wow - that is amazing. Thanks for the explanation! Sorry that it's such a point of frustration, though. I'm glad to learn how it works, now I'll have a better understanding of what that means when you post about it!
On the other point, of people leaving because of language or being 'offended': I recently had a talkback where a woman said she was bothered by the discussion of lesbianism in the play not because SHE had a problem with it, but "because there might be people in the audience who were offended by it." *sigh* I mean... now we're complaining about things that DON'T bother us and that no one else is complaining about, just... in case?
