Ooh, yes, re: opera being addictive. I used to listen to the Saturday afternoon radio broadcasts from the Metropolitan, when I was in my teen years; while other kids my age were drooling over Kurt Cobain, I was drooling over Jerry Hadley and James Morris. And I just found out that the cinema I went to earlier today also screens telecasts from the Met, about every month or so during the season. If I can talk my folks into it, I might look into this.
