I could argue with you but there would be no point. The fact that you think I don't recognize a PT Barnum reference (particularly when he has pretty much one reference) simply illustrates how much smarter you think you are than the rest of the world. So I won't tell you anything any longer and suggest you do the same for me.

cool :)

Actually not cool at all. You seem to be projecting motives and intent onto me that I do not have. I used a Barnum because I assumed everyone would get it.

Although the situation in which I am smarter than the folks I am talking to is not uncommon it is not the preferred case or even the assumed one.

So if you will stop assigning evil motives to me when I am just expressing my opinions and experiences with art and rich folks (subjects I have intimately involved in since my nativity) I will not assume you project your own intentions on others.
