...trying to belittle these efforts. The stamp collectors who will determine the biochemical pathways of the human body will bring more good to this world than anyone might imagine. However, the “Eureka,”—the breathless chase of uncharted physical processes—is what I am after...
...pressure isn?t evident in the show, but the furious energy is. From the first minutes, which turned Jonathan Harker?s trip to Castle Dracula into a symphony of thun-der, horses? hooves and whinnies, shouting villagers, shrieking carriage springs and the baying of wolves - set to a breathless mixture of narration and dialogue, and prefigured by the urgent underscoring of Bernard Herrmann?s origi-nal music - listeners must have realized with a thrill that they were in for a splendid summer of weekly drama.

Go to the mall or a concert or a restaurant and you can find them in the wild, the kids who have never been told no, whose sense of power and entitlement leaves onlookers breathless, the sand-kicking, foot-stomping, arm-twisting, wheedling, whining despots whose parents presumably deserve the company of the monsters they, after all, created...
