I understand that. But I disagree. The essence of the zany-ness (did I say
that?) is as far as I can see deeply influenced by the culture it arose
from. Take (to make things even more difficult) the difference in zany-ness
between the Pythons themselves... The atmospheric humour of Oxford versus
the more verbal humour of Cambridge?
