Jim, let me understand this.  You think that the Joffrey Ballet, the Alvin 
Ailey Dance Company, the Mark Morris Dance Company, Peter Sellars, Robert
Wilson, Bill Viola, the New York Philharmonic, the Boston Symphony, etc.,
- all of which receive public funding - are just vanities that serve to feed 
the artists' inflated egos?  Please explain.
