BEACHER #1, funny you mentioned South Pacific. The Pulitzer Prize winning author James A. Michener who wrote the book,Tales of the South Pacific,from which the movie was based, lived just a few miles from me in Doylestown Pa. Oscar Hammerstein who wrote the lyrics and the music along with Richard Rodgers, also lived in Doylestown. What this has to do with Oman (so Agoracom doesn't yank this posting) is that Omagine will be our "Bali Ha'i ",or as you put it, our "Oman hi". Either way,the party in NYC will certainly be "Some Enchanted Evening",--- Rossano Brazzi.
