<<Lama, thanks ever so much for your kind words. Glad I could groove you with mine.
- -Fred>> In addition to "flatulent melisma", my other new favorite expression, stumbled over in a book about the changing architecture of NYC, is "soigne ennui". "Beautiful boredom" just doesn't quite say it as well... "pampered poverty???" Nope. Just love the French. God bless Ms. Huxtable, who was the architecture critic for the NY Times for a long time. She coined it. Ciao, -Walt
