Dear M. Jivko -- I don't see why you feel the need to apologize. You err. It 
is not complex and has nothing to do with abstraction, but everything to do 
with bodies; the bodies ofthe mutilated victims. This is a very Foucauldian 
topic. Have you not read the work of Foucault about the clinic, and the 
Birth of the  Prison? Please clear the air in your head before you assault 
Mr. Widder. It is intellectuals like you that make me want to quit, to kill 
myself, to read Ann Raynd. To go back and be a ballerina, and to take an 
air, in a tobacco trance. Or something like writing you a personal letter 
saying, no you are wrong sir, wrong wrong wrong.
- Now having gotten that out, I wish to say that you need to question your 
first principles Mister Jivko, and please when you have done so, please 
return to the list with your relevant topics and exciting questions about 
Music and other things, which you know so much about. So much that you make 
me sick. I still love you though, but purely abstractly, like a human 
principle sort of thing, you know like, you see.
