To: SunkenCiv

I remember a friend who recited 'The Pardoner's Tale' completely and was surprised to learn that his entire English Class had learned it together by this method. They called it "Bop Talk" or similar then, in the late '50s.

I thought it was a most creative approach. The two lines I memorized taught me to hate Chaucer. But his whole Sheboygan(WI) High School Class thought it was cool.

Thanks for the ping.
