I agree. I'm personally not a fan of Stevie's poses and shawls. That's why I've been known to spend vast portions of Rhiannon knitting. But to me GDW's mood and atmosphere is not based on any of her silhouette acrobats. It's based on emotion and that has not changed for me. That has not lessened. I don't think its power is that different from what it always has been, extended ending or not.
