I agree with you about the attitudes that some people have. I am much older than you, and I would like to be able to tell you that as people get older, they get wiser. But I find many of the same attitudes among my peers that you find among your's. Not as prevalent, perhaps, but not uncommon either. We have a "just plain folks" snobbishness that is just as damaging, and just as wrong as the kind some people associate with classical music. Keep yourself free from these things and you will do well. Take care, Bob Lyman ([log in to unmask]) http://www.geocities.com/Soho/Workshop/7610/ http://www.artists-in-residence.com/users/radiance/
