So, we skip to the mighty iPod and we ask: modulo the vagaries of fickle panelists, how will our Hubble Proposals, cycle 17, fare?

Somehow to believe

Am I better off this way

The title of the Root is a bit vague--I can't place it even though I'm familiar with the Nutcracker. Some of the possibilities would be good news, particularly the Arabian Dance (Coffee). Others, like the battle scene, not so much.
