Not wanting to be influenced and only now reading over your other comments I don’t think it’s a matter of dancing over someone’s grave but a general misgiving about the artist and the incomprehensible celebrity culture which is America’s phenomenon. With the tenured and the Pulitzered just as guilty, of course, as mechanical print and electronic media outbursts.

I do like J. D. Daniels’ comments in particular; even more if his given name’s Jack.

From Spain, where I live,

Cheers to you, Sir
