You don't say! And here I thought Shakespeare was obliged to kill
Mercutio so that Romeo would kill Tybalt, which, in turn, would lead
to his banishment to Mantua and separation with Juliet. Shows how
blind one can be.(Wonder why did Shakespeare neglect to dispatch
Shylock in the same manner?)

Actually it was Ben Jonson who made this comment, so have it out with 
him if you dont agree.  I just wonder why you have to be so offensively 
sarcastic in replying to a perfectly inoffensive post. It is possible 
to disagree with someone without being so unpleasant.
