| I read an article recently about a message in a bottle that was found after being lost in the ocean for 40 years. In my head, it was in the aftermath of WWII... but then I did the math and it was after Reagan was elected. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | |

| I recall seeing the elderly Groucho Marx on a talk show in the early '70s. At one point, he referred to his days in vaudeville with his brothers during the First World War, and spoke of it as "thirty years ago." His math was off by a quarter century. At the time I found this startling. But hey, that was at least thirty years ago. |

| Perhaps you didn't read Amiens' post before correcting them. Amiens said: "The Roundabout did a revival at their Criterion space around 1992". It was, in fact, a bit over 29 years ago, if you're invested in accuracy. Amiens' subject line was pretty obviously a typo. |

| I could claim the "twenty years ago" was a typo or auto-correct....but no, it was a simple miscalculation. When you get old, time flies by. | |

| Miscalculation, typo...you got the year right. ...and, imo, everything else. I am a huge fan of Stoppard, but I agree that it takes a special breed of actor to perform his work in general, not just his comedy. Thanks for bringing back a happy work memory! A lovely version with Austin Pendleton as Hamlet was filmed. |
