Sometimes the best of us get snubbed all our life before we are able to show them what we're truly worth. However, that doesn't mean that we're anything less just because you don't become famous or win an award, as in Dan's case. I'm terribly upset that Dan didn't get nominated; however we all know he's one of the better (real) young actors out there today so Dan's in good hands.
Hopefully, he'll get a nomination next time when he comes back to Broadway again, which I'm sure of.
