wes - good point
but i wonder

...if everything is pomo
if culture is pomo
'one and the same'

what utility does the term have ?

why bother using it ?

it seems that if it doesn't denote something 
we cd potentially distinguish
within a broader realm 'culture' lets say
then it serves no purpose

which wdn't bother me particularly

thoughts ?
