A bit of a coincidence for me that you bring this topic up this week, as when I read online that Harvey Korman had died, I was half way through a nomination email when I remembered you saying that you would prefer not to get them.
I felt sure though, that you would give him a mention - or indeed, a "harrumph". (It's my favourite movie too).

You're right: I should have given him a harrumph in my brief salute. When it came to choosing him or Dick Martin, though, I had to go with Martin. He was not only not covered nearly as well in the media, but I had to acknowledge his ground-breaking work. "Laugh-In" was truly a breakthrough. -rc
