>>As I've joked here previously: What's Opera's target market? Fat ladies who sing?

funnily enough the only (non geek) i've met who has ever used opera (apart from people i've introduced it to) was a girl at the royal academy of music who used it because she thought the name was cool.

[as it happens she was stunningly attractive and a pianist :)]
