Posted: 6/8/05 at 7:46pmThe contest appears to have disappeared and has been replaced by the headline they used as an example? Has this been discussed before? I couldn't find anything about it and would appreciate it if someone could fill me in with an explanation.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

It is ridiculous to set a detective story in New York City. New York City is itself a detective story...
