...after all. One ought to be careful abt assumptions.

While I find myself in agreement with Gina Arnold in a number of places in the beginning of her article, by the bottom of Page 2 she reveals that she doesn't know what she's talking about. I'll wager that she's never seen "chunky" Anna Pavlova in flesh -- so she must be judging Pavlova's physique by old, known-to-be-shape-distorting photographs. But to characterize the relatively short and small-built-although-well-muscled Mikhail Baryshnikov as built like a Mack truck suggests that she needs a better set of opera glasses. I've seen him, perhaps Arnold has seen him, too -- and to most people with half-decent eyesight Baryshnikov is anything but that.
