  Dear Richard Pine,

  The personification of "Art" aside, you must be
  a crotchety old coote to publically reply to someone's 
  email like this. Or is it just women on this list that you 
  are pre-disposed to ruflling? I don't think Durrell would 
  be quite so harsh in his social demeanor, if he had had 
  email access to on-line discussions.

  ... would he? 

  Just kickstarting a near-dormant list  
  but otherwise, lurking to learn ...

  (and btw, as a lover of all waterfowl,
  cootes and grebes do fascinate)

      I do not think this is about semantics. This is about reality and obscuring reality by verbiage.

      Art does not create its own world. Even artists do not create their own worlds. But isn't it pretty to think that they do? 

      And this is about ideas.

        Now we are getting pedantic.  First it's about grammar, now about semantics.  I thought the List was interested in discussing ideas.
