    I've put myself on a truth drug all through that conversation actually. I bet you've done none of the things you've mentioned. I've certainly done the things I mentioned (plus more, and on an even larger scale).

    I don't think I can choke. (Ever since I first swallowed a planet my oesophagus has become so wide that I would need to find something insanely big in order to choke on it. And that's going to take a while.)

    Fools! Such insignificant feats! Once, I swallowed the whole Universe! It was disgusting, so I induced vomiting...

    It's nice to find an active Classic Music Forum.

    Most of Schubert symphonies have high quality. His style is more similar to Haydn rather Beethoven, more like the best of Haydn. My least favorite is No.7, it hasn't much feeling in itself.

    I find No.2 the Schubert's most impressive. Then, No. 8,5 and 10. Number 9 is 'great', but after sometime it bores you.

    Has anyone heard Harnoncourt's cycle. I obtained this smart package and so far, I love it with the exception of his 8th 1st movement which I find a bit plodding (I prefer it faster, like Mackerras'). Harnoncourt's 5th is particuarly good.

    The percentage on the poll doesn't add up! It's more than 100%.
