What are the limits of your duty to others? Gilbert and Sullivan were
quite funny on the subject, particularly in "Pirates of Penzance".

Indeed, as per the hand programme, so-called (at the Fifth Avenue Theatre),
the thing read:

"The Pirates Of Penzance; Or, The Slave Of Duty: Comic Opera In Two Acts."

Sir W. S. Gilbert must have been reading Kant!?

Cheers,

Speranza
