I didn't not know that about American-English burgeoning. But basically the whole 'stand up comedy' article is mis-named - it should be 'American stand up comedy'. It talks about the origins of stand up being 'in various traditions of American entertainment popular in the late 19th century', not really saying owt about European music hall and then ignoring stuff like ENSA and The Windmill. It's wholly about US stand up: that 'burgeoning' thing is the sole reference to other countries.

My ears cease to itch, hurrah, and Nano STILL perturbs me. What to do, what?
