Or does this further prove my point that the best info is to be had by *reading*? Funny you should mention this Doug. The other day, I was commenting on an image on a photography group I have frequented for a long time and used some imagery from mythology, in particular Campbell's "Thousand Faces" to make my point. Nobody knew the reference or ever understood it for that matter. I have noticed more and more that the broad based reading you would think "artists" would be doing isn't being done and that if you make a literary reference, it's usually met with stone silence - unless the reader is around my age (60 +/-). I have often thought that one reason that we have the political problems we have is that not enough people are well read enough or spend their time reading that which is understandable to them, rather than stretching their imaginations and intellects to at least try and attain another level of enlightenment. Later, Tom This study would indicate that only about 41% of the population read the newspaper, and only about 8% spend an hour or more reading the paper. Most get their news from TV. http://people-press.org/reports/display.php3?PageID=613 -- John H **** May your Christmas be Spectacular!**** *****...and your New Year even Better!***** |
