It’s Polonius’ bit from Hamlet — advice to his son — perhaps one of the most famous pieces in the English language.

Well, he's got a point. Considering today's universities are not teaching much of "the classics" anymore, it might be a good idea for posters to attribute the prose they post.

That way someone who has not been exposed might choose to look it up and read more.

Just a thought.

P.S. I was in a checkout line the other night and the clerk noticed my Moody Blues T-shirt. He asked if I'd really seen them live. ::: roll eyes ::: Yes. Then went on to how they talk about MB in Rock and Roll class at the local college.

"Rock and Roll class, for like credit?" Yes, he says...

So todays kids might be able to site the poem at the end of "Nights in White Satin", but they may not know Hamlet.
