Excuse me.  Is this the Lawrence Durrell Society?

   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 ...

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.

>Well, really, art          creates and does nothing. Next time you find art atwork, please let me          know. People, of course, create things. Not art. Ithink we should resist          reification.
