Ok, Barney, here's your flame! (Don't want you to feel as if your tome
went unread).
Erudition, above and beyond!, BUT, so what?
Is such introspection really necessary? Hell, I walk out of an
exposition of fine art or photography that I don't understand or care
to understand, shrug my shoulders, and say to myself, or anyone brave
enough to accompany me, "That's life"!, and, "Whatever starts your
engine"!
