That's why I didn't think twice about what I was saying. I thought Shakespeare and R+J in particular were so pervasive in Western culture (I'm in the UK) that even if you'd never read/seen it you'd know the very rough outline of the story at least. More than any of his other plays I would have thought. So now I try to be a bit more discreet about opening my big mouth. Obviously I failed here...
