| Laura, you're probably right: It probably was ''Considerate'' all along. But here's one musical-theater columnist who cites that story about Ostrow, but maybe he's just repeating some misinformation. |

| Ostrow, in his book PRESENT AT THE CREATION, misidentified the song as "Cool, Cool Conservative Men" when discussing the White House request to cut the number. He also calls it that in both some contemporary pieces on the incident and in later interviews. I think that's what he thought the title really was. For that matter, at the Q&A with Peter Hunt, misspoke and said "conservative," but corrected himself. If anyone out there has access to Sherman Edwards' wife's diaries, I bet they would say when made thae demo. And it's "considerate" on the demo, for sure. Laura |

| Too bad you didn't get to ask Hunt about this. ;) | |
