John Gleason is smiling above, I think you both did a great service to the business, both by dedicating it to him and to espousing his work and practice and teaching. I really enjoyed it (I was so wrapped up in what you were saying that I let my spaghetti water almost boil dry in the kitchen not hearing a very loud timer.<G>) and I think you both were entertaining and passionate about your "thinking and doing" concerning color in the theatre. I think you were very smart to make it a paint AND light lecture demo- Lord knows they don't exist without each other- we still spend huge amounts of time trying to impress that point on students!
