I was just reading through the review for "Spamalot", the show from Monty Python that just opened on Broadway. The following quote brought a smile to my face:

"Its authors have had to walk a precarious line — pleasing those fanatical Python fans who have committed the entire movie script to memory while satisfying other theatergoers who never have heard of the Killer Rabbit, the Knights who say "Ni" or that cheeky French soldier who hurls insults such as "your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!"

I guess you can put me in that "fanatical" group, because I have a hard time fathoming how people could not know about the Knights who say "Ni!" I mean, really, just thinking that is preposterous.
