Actually, I don't believe in anything but music. The problem is defining "music" maybe JL can help us out here -- we hearers think that music is sound and rhythms of sound, but the deaf can tell us how benighted we all are. Music is inside. Deaf people know music. Maybe more so than you and I hearers do. Music isn't sound. Music is spirit, is motion, is space, is opaqueness, is liberation. Music is us in the world. Our lives are a score given us -- we can play the same old tune or improvise. It's all just jazz, folks. Have fun with it. end of sermon, Mike Geary ------------------------------------------------------------------ To change your Lit-Ideas settings (subscribe/unsub, vacation on/off, digest on/off), visit www.andreas.com/faq-lit-ideas.html
