Response to Phil Borges toning technique

I won't waste my sensability by finding his work offensive, there's much more offensive fish to dispose of...

This comment is the reason I am loath to engage in acedemic discourse (discourse for it's own sake, to justify ones own existence by confounding oneself and then teaching a class about self confoundment for the good of your own whatever...) "I like the fact that Borges techniques draw attention to themselves" .... it sounds sort of neurotic, and I have less even affinity for postmodernism than I have for academia, it (PMism) sucks all the fun out of discovery, grace and self awareness and forces self-conciousness upon us. "Some are born self-concious, some learn self-conciousness and others have self- conciousness thrust upon (or thrown up on) them.

sorry if this pisses you off John, I really like you and this point of contention is not worth any animosity between us... t
