...Glidden was hit with a Greatamerica tender seeking to buy 54% of Glidden's stock for $30 a share, or $107 million all told. Texan Troy V.

One of the chief reasons, speculates Pollster Lou Harris, is that the egg-tossing, paint-splattering European Vietniks who dogged Hubert won him a considerable sympathy vote back home...
...decision to use projections is wise, for nothing is more impossible than creating a believable magic forest from paper and paint. John Halvorson's slides and the green and blue light scheme ordained by Alan Symonds worked well enough when the stage was quiet and the poetry delivered with reasonable facility...
