"What I've done is shared a story, nothing more, nothing less. People are able to interpret that story however they see fit. Whether it is about a horse, a car, a coffee maker or Poser." Semi cop out :) Now I agree your opinion is your own to share, but you cannot say that the story itself was not intended as an editorial comment about Poser5... because it clearly was. "art" does not exist in a vacuum, it exists in a context - and the context of posting it here and now when taken witht he context of your other comments makes the story deliberately suitable for a specific parralel to be drawn. So i defend your right to an opinion, but don't pretend any Poser5 editorializing were only int he mind of the reader... because it simply isn't true. You know it, and we know it :)
