Thank you for defining Art for everyone. I'm glad your personal intpretation is now the rule, and the foundation for your entire arguement. Luckily, art and its definition is left up to the individual intrepreting it. If art=communication for you, great. Just don't assume everyone has the same definition as you. In agreement of sorts... The general public, as the word general implies, are not passionate enough about anything to really do anything about it. However, everyone has some passion about something, ours just happens to be music. So we don't listen to pop radio. Watch the way most people enjoy music...they want to sing along, to have the artists expression more immediate. If that's someone's gig, that's cool. So if someone's passion is Super Mario Brothers, sports, trading stocks and bonds, snowboarding, porn, soaps, etc. more power to 'em. At least their passionate about something. Kelly
