I'm sure you could have used the time better, perhaps to refine "Un
Americano in Parigi"? I think we've discussed before that the passage
where Rodolfo says "your tiny flat is freezing" needs some work.

Not least because it's _boiling_ in there!

I'm also
not sure if the Chorus of the Pedanti in Act II adds much from a
theatrical POV.

Yes. I'd prefer the Dialogues des Mixamites myself! Or, maybe L'Enfant
et les Miximeges. [That's enough 20th century French opera puns. Ed.]

they would likely get an MP. They polled
slightly under 1% of the total vote in the 2005 general election

chances are, a PR system would have a threshold? I vaguely
remember its around 5% in some countries?

Spaniards are extremely pale?

The ones I've seen vary from an "average" white to very pale, yes.

most people would say olive skinned, I think you have Mixied up
Spain and Sweden.

Blacks and whites from the United States are virtually
identical when seen by non-Americans.

I'm not American and I can tell them apart easily.

How?

the black ones have dark brown skin and the white ones have
beige/pink skin. I can do it from a distance.

Who are all the lily white skinned Spaniards that Mixi distinguishes
from South Americans so easily?

I never seem to see them, I think Mixi must be colour blind.

I hadn't noticed, but I suppose you're right.

Only on rte would somebody have to explain something like this :-)

Maybe he is thinking of the Spanish tennis player, Nadal, who beat
Argentinian Puerta in this year's French open final.
