>>I've seen hundreds and hundreds of shows in the last forty years, probably the original production of every musical mentioned on this thread,

neither of these address your position. you've either seen every musical since 1973 - your own criteria for evaluating and ranking - or you haven't. "hundreds" and "probably" don't cut it, again using your own criteria. criteria i heartily agree with by the way. i don't understand the concept of, "ok, i haven't seen X but i know it pales in comparison to Y."

and it's so much worse when stated either authoritatively (if one is feeling generous) or pompously (if one is not) "X matters and nothing that follows does. i know this because i saw X."
