I'm thinking of Placido Domingo, active since 1960 (that's almost 50 years!), and still going strong. If the voice doesn't have the great top anymore, the middle and lower voices seem untouched by time and have the same burnished quality they had long ago. And this man lives on airplanes--though now more than likely it's a private jet. All the same--you fool your body, which thinks it's in Vienna while you're getting off the plane in San Francisco. That's been known to happen.Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10020538249548627986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202458237483635505.post-36543868736278187612007-11-17T10:53:00.000-05:002007-11-17T10:53:00.000-05:00I left it deliberately ambiguous -- though I did m...I left it deliberately ambiguous -- though I did mean primarily the kind of built environment where nature and the shape and size of the human body recede and square concrete things predominate.<BR/><BR/>But I was also thinking of the travel. I didn't hit me the same way going East to Europe.<BR/><BR/>I do love California and used to live here. But up North in the Bay Area, and downtown convention-center districts are weird in all cities.<BR/><BR/>Off to work.
