well, all I know is I think #2 was the last, and that he was as prolific in procreating as he was at composing, but that's the extent of my knowledge on him ( I much prefer Handel).

Shouldn't that be "academic". ? Correct puctuation is important, you know.

Could also be a difference between USA and NZ. I mean the brits spell theatre and we spell theater, there's center and centre.
Be sides, (.") looks better.

now you "guys" going to play nice
there isn't a difference between USA and NZ - its a difference between modern English and what has become Amercian English
however grammar is grammar
so Marty here is an idea
we can turn our guesses into another game i.e. 2 positions correct type clues

Would two of those correct positions be: "missionary" and "doggy" ?
(I'm sorry

- just in an extremely good (and mischievious) mood this morning)
(did I spell "mischievious" right ? ).

without googling I'm pretty sure his last finished was 2. At least i remember that from way back.....and I'd bet more on I'm wrong than i'm right, so in saying that...
so i'll guess: 1,3,4,5,6,2.
