I wouldn't be too quick to accept the blame... er credit

Given the inappropriate company structure, the production was always going to spark this kind of debate.

Probably not.

Some of us may also argue that the latter group is possibly either ill informed or failing to appreciate that companies structured like this damage our chances at future performance opportunities. They're probably the very same group that will complain in a couple of years that there aren't the chances to perform that there used to be.

I wonder if they share a similar lack of foresight with regard to old growth forests?

Or perhaps there's another group of people who, when this show is over, would never like to do another show again and can't wait for the destruction of the amazonian rainforest?

;-)

Incorporation - investing in and protecting our future. A couple of forms and a measly $100. Why would anyone choose not to incorporate? Think about it.
