I can't get over Rogers and Hammerstein, these two New York Jews who had a genius--an absolute genius--for creating cheesy musicals that Christian middle Americans of Northern European descent revered. Oklahoma is the Classic. Two New York Jews writing, "The corn is as high as an elephant's eeeeye..." The New Yorker had a great article about them a few years back. People are amazing animals.
