...addition to the known or anticipated fruits of space exploration, there are the discoveries as yet unknown. Though past explorers often failed to find what they were looking for-the Fountain of Youth, a Northwest Passage-they often stumbled across wonders they never dreamed of, from precious stones to uncharted oceans. Says James Seevers, an astronomer at Chicago's Adler Planetarium: "Out of the atmosphere of earth, you have an utterly clear view of the planets and the stars and the galaxy. The entire universe is open to you. We've probably learned as much in the past...
Dadaism was originally a movement formed in Europe to protest the horrors of World War I, but it spread to America during the teens and the twenties where it outraged its contemporaries, much as The Sex Pistols did. A sculpture entitled "fountain," no more than a toilet seat hung by a nail, drew special condemnation for its vulgarity.

...sound and whirling energy cannot hide the show's vacuity. The story line is repetitive and inconsequential; Trevor Nunn's staging is an elephantine parody of his wondrous work on Nicholas Nickleby and Lloyd Webber's Cats; and the composer, who until now seemed an inexhaustible fountain of inventive melody, has devised a bluesy score that is sere and predictable. Lloyd Webber is no longer content simply to write musicals; now he must mount spectacles for theatergoers who will accept something big in place of something good. The performers, led by Stephanie Lawrence and a break-dancing...
Drawing on my "expertise" acquired at my uncle's drugstore I quickly got a job at Liggett's North Station store--behind the soda fountain. It was a 56-hour week on rotating shifts for $15 a week. Not bad especially when you consider that females were paid $12 for the same gruelling schedule...
