OOOooooooooooH I have inadvertantly hit the someone's very tender button and without any such intent. Do I get a "Brownie" point ? (= Girl Scout's badge in some places) This is a first for me (I think). Does "Guest" status invalidate my gold stars?
Well Guest - I am assuming there is only one of you on this thread - my target is the "flickaswitch" society and the demise of the tradition of "Joe Public Entertaining Himself". If fashion culture and peer pressure driving the populous at large (and youth yet larger) are not a blinkers then they are manacles. Academe have more subtle constraints.
Would I mention "Ivory Towers" if I did not........ Oh I can't be arsed to be condescending
it's IRONY
On second thoughts I give my "brownie" points back it was not a fair fight.
