[Gaetan Charlebois]

Hello All

Oh! the humanity. The battlefield of the Ten Best controversy is littered
with wounded egos, bon mots, raging passions, moral outrage, intellectual
facility and a lot - A LOT! - of good thinking and smart opinions expressed
honestly. For this reason I am going to change things (and you will not hear
that from me very often). It is now called "canadiantheatre.com Visitors
Choose Their Ten Favourite Canadian Plays." Now, if there is something
offensive in that, please discuss it amongst yourselves after I have left
the room and present the consensus in petition form to my assistant.  Now
fergadsakes vote -  show you care.

I am looking for highschool teachers to consult toward the creation of a
Teachers' Guide on the site, please contact me if you'd like to help. And if
any of you have suggestions about how this should be done, let me know.

Also, don't forget to use Heavenly Voices
(http://www.canadiantheatre.com/heavenlyvoices.html)
for your regional news. And Thea-Tricks still offers a prize every week.
(http://www.canadiantheatre.com/theatricks.html).

New Features:
I have created a Masthead now that I have assembled an advisory board.

have contributed information, etc. The board consists of five kind and wise
