Favourite drink - bleach. Got it.

I would like to second this. I read it with my parents when I was very young and it was a wonderful experience. With my mother long passed, faint memories of sitting in bed working though the book are something I'll always treasure.

I'm not so sure that it was a good idea for her to make the adaptation (very different, but if you consider it as a separate piece of work, wonderful in its own right) my first cinema experience however! Still, I <twitch> turned out OK!

For creating one, and providing the impetus for the other, I thank you deeply.

How is this competition? Please explain how you compete with someone duplicating work you made and into which they have put no effort. The individual isn't 'playing a version' of her music, he/she is taking a recording and selling it for profit. There is no artistic contribution, and no recompense for the person who actually put the work in.
