Re: GG: Newspaper and magazine articles

Also see the Oct 4 issue of MacLean's for mention of F-minor, p 10.  

The Toronto Life article about Steve Posen is interesting.  I'm not sure
in the end what it had to say was at all scandalous.  The GG interviews
GG skit at the beginning was just awful.  

Now about that statue-- who's to say GG wouldn't love it-- people could
get all near it and touch it and leave him alone!!!
