...Guinness and Ashcroft among them. Then, from 1963 to 1976, it served as the first home of Britain's National Theater. Thereafter it declined into a mere booking hall, just another space where a producer might launch a commercial production. Now Miller and the theater's owners, Toronto Businessman Ed Mirvish, 73, and his son David, 43, are seeking to bring back the glory days of the classics. Their goal: a commercial troupe to rival in quality the two huge subsidized London ensembles, the National and the Royal Shakespeare Company...

I know, also, that there is a school of student journalism which loves to see words like "boner" in print, because this is "brash," "bucking the establishment," and all the things that, done for their own sake, render an op-ed page rather pointless.
