Quincy,
No comment on your other remarks, but as to the jazz, did anyone say it was "news"? I think not. It was nice, not news. The singer was a joy to watch--a truly lovely smile--and that was enough for me. Not everything needs to be news that stays news. It was music and poetry together--something the conference has sought to supply in various ways since its inception, not always masterfully. The attempt is worthwhile, though.
Cheers,
Dave
