Hi
It was not offensive to this artist, in fact it has made me think! Re:
evidence of artists being more insane, I will try to find some statistics
about incidences of insanity by careers (if any exists) and get back to you(
my personal bet would be that psychiatrists are the most suseptible-JUST
KIDDING).
Meantime, i am spurred to once again look at the role emotions ( another
