Me: "IMHO I shouldn't remove the word "foolish" because I was quoting a self-contradicting statement. Is implication was that purists MUST be foolish because they were the only ones arguing - everyone else was off elsewhere creating art. Therefore everyone in this thread MUST be a purist who is anti-postwork by definition..." RubiconDigital: "Bollocks...........that's your interpretation," My apologies, I can only give my interpretation. RubiconDigital: "but not what I was implying at all. I never called anyone foolish." Nor, in fact, did I say you'd typed that word. I was however trying to point out, somewhat light-heartedly (too many thread sof late seem to be full of far too little humour) that your statement appears to be somewhat nonsensical. Please feel free to correct me. If the purists are arguing while everyone else is out making good art, who ARE the purists arguing with if not themselves? Feel free to assume that I typed that with a slightly wry grin, and that I'm a fairly easy-going chap who likes to puzzle things out and even discuss the oddities of the English Language - as opposed to the current norm of assuming that every second post is some form of personal attack (dunno whether to put a sad or a smiley here, so I'll play it safe and leave it blank).
