Burma. Calling that country Myanmar would be submitting to the will of a dictatorial junta.
Wine: red or white?

Ok, so nobody has an opinion on Belgian or British Ale. I guess I'll give my opinion then.

Degas — he does design things I don't quite see how they work.

Black and White--I think charcoal drawings are classic

City, as I live in one.

Why can't we enjoy both?! (If I HAVE to pick, it's hard SF, but I happily reread both).

)
