I hate redundancy.

Thou art God tho. Still. I'm just ever-so-impressed someone understood...

Meant more as "personal humor" and not "a way to sneer" (or I'd never answer!), I still feel reminded of this quote over my own "obscurity" in the "Jubal issue". Take it as you will (again, back to the ever-present "Thou art God")... If I didn't post it, someone else *should* have.

"Mmm, one does have to learn to look at art. But it's up to the artist to use language that can be understood. Most of these jokers don't *want* to use language you and I can learn; they would rather sneer because we 'fail' to see what they are driving at. If anything. Obscurity is the refuge of incompetence..."
