No, Dido, moderators do not sleep, nor do posters.
Allow me to quote an old Swedish poet - "night is not for sleep..."

[jimmattimore]

I (and my wife) came to ballet late, although we both had seen various "Nutcracers" over the years, but when I found ballet, I just worshipped these dancers. I now attend about 20 ballets a year, and would see even more. If you're a New Yorker as I am, you can buy balcony seats for $12.00  at The New York City Balletby joining The Fourth Ring Society. Bravo Ballanchine. The opening night was great, and even at 40, Darci still looks fabulous.

Welcome, Jim!  There are lots of other Fourth Ringers here -- You can read what they're saying about the season, and tell us about what you're seeing, over in American Ballet Companies -- there's a New York City Ballet subforum.

I hope I quoted correctly and this may be or placed in the wrong forum, but I wanted to know more information on this Swedish poet.  I can definitely relate to that quote and I have this fond liking for Sweden as do I for many countries in Europe. Anyways, any info would be of interest.
