 ML>> Used to be that TR's chili came with onions and cheese
 ML>> preinstalled, and I'd have to request that they leave it off,
 ML>> but now they've been consistently asking whether it's wanted.
 NB>> The time we went to TR, they asked about all sorts of additions to
 NB>> the sides and entrees... It seemed to me that most of them were an
 NB>> additional cost, so it seemed almost as a way to push them (like the
 NB>> marshmallows for the sweet potato).
 ML> The art of the upsell. The cheese and onion on the chili are
 ML> not extra, but the mushroom and onion on the steaks are; I am
 ML> not sure that they tell you that.

Small print on the menu, IIRC.  The perky waitress didn't mention it,
though...  I might have gone for the mushroom and onion on the steak,
except that I wanted to taste the steak itself at least the first
time... ;)

 ML>> The waiter, given the setting, was probably an out-of-work
 ML>> Broadway actor and likely had a great memory to begin with.
 NB>> Or at least an under-employed actor...  After all, he was still
 NB>> there a decade later to remember you... :)
 ML> I didn't inquire. Last time I was there, a year or two ago,
 ML> he no longer was.

Ah.  So either he got successful, or he gave up...  ;)
 
 ML>> Part of it is the obsession and self-isolation that are
 ML>> needed to achieve that high level
 NB>> kinda makes me glad I never
 NB>> had quite the aspiration for that sort of excellence...

 ML> My aspiration was for the excellence but not the lifestyle.
 ML> I got partway to the former, the tradeoff being endurance of
 ML> part of the latter.

The lifestyle wouldn't have done me much good... My mother was good
enough that, had she not given it up to get married and raise a family,
she might have gone somewhere with it... but I don't think that she
would have really done all that well with the lifestyle either, even a
generation earlier...  She could obsess well enough, though, sorta... ;) 
Instead of becoming a pianist/performer, she finally went back to school
and got her BA and MA in musicology at Eastman, and then a Masters in
Library Science (from Buffalo)... 
 
 NB>> I think I hear more recordings of Joanne Falletta (sp?) conducting...

 ML> Oh, yeah, her. She was (according to friends who played
 ML> under her) very talented, but it took a certain personality
 ML> to be successful as a woman in a then-almost-all-male field.
 ML> I know other equally talented female conductors, but she had
 ML> the stick-to-itiveness and thick skin that it took to really
 ML> make it.

That's about what I've gathered, from what I hear on the radio here,
including when she appeared on the classical station on a special
interview with the mid-day announcer...  Apparently she was able to open
doors for others who came after her... :)
