    Leaping nimbly from topic to topic, turning and twirling, casting aside opinions like silk scarves fluttering in the breeze of their passage, until their naked prejudices are shown to the world, quivering slightly with the hot breath of their exertions, and they decide that 'None of the above' is right, so right, and their hands flutter delicately over the keyboard, leaving the scattered evidence of their passing in their wake to be pawed over and pored over while they retreat backstage, ready to come out again at the next opportunity to shine and be noticed.

    Poll dancers, a breed apart.

        Thanks both.

        I was recovering from/at the back end of a migraine, so my brain was being a bit more florid than usual.
