There is out there on the web, a site devoted to Gilbert and Sullivan parodies of famous songs. To those who don't read too much Heinlein, and didn't see *Topsy Turvey*, Gilbert and Sullivan did light opera in late 19th Century London. One of their more famous songs is 'I am the Very Model of a Modern Major General'. Well, I sent something to them about 2 years ago, and no reply, posting or whatnot. I think it's one of those sites that's still up, but noone's home. Anyway, I did one on Star Trek, all 5 series. Kudos if you recognize some of the references, but you have my sympathy if you recognize all of them..;) Here goes..the scanning may not work 100%, but it's fairly close..;)

I wish I'd said that.. The Staircase Wit
