Clarity can often come across as easy.

That it's so easy to post a link that people can actually click on.
The clarity comes from looking below the text body box, and pasting your link in the "Optional Link URL" space.
Easy.
Never noticed that and have been here for...well years. So apologies to Mr. Dill, if that's what he meant.
Exactly what I mean't, no apologies required Bob, it's all good ....

But the fact is, it is simple. The Avant Gard misunderstands what art is. They take the techniques the modernists mixed with traditional forms to revitalize tradition and try to make an aesthetic out of them all by themselves. Sometimes the clverest of their music diverts, amuses, charms but Scuton is right: it can't do much else. And while many of us, including me, listen to some of it with some pleasure, we know that it's a dead end. It doesn't lead anywhere anymore than it comes from anyhere. Many of us read John Ashbery and are amused. But we also know that we're being had. That can be fun, of course...
