On the contrary, talking and thinking about it is far more likely to
determine its nature and guide us to creating the effect than is blindly
dismissing reason in favor of mystical revelation, regardless how "sure"
you may feel about such revelations.

This is way off track:

I am never in favor of mystical revelation, or blindness of any type, and if
you thought i was suggesting anything of the sort, I apologize for being
unclear.

Exactly the opposite, I am suggesting lots of hard work, and producing
something of substance, rather than chatting endlessly about who is entitled.
