I see....well, I have not watched them, although I have seen some episodes of Real World and Road Rules on MTV. Perhaps there is more to be gleaned than I suspect........

Hi Poet,

Re: "I wouldn't equate those shows to sideshows"

I agree, they are part of our culture, one facet of the elephant, that many blind are tempting to describe.. If a person is willing to only touch one part of the societal beast, they won't get a feel for the whole. they might become a expert on the head or the behind, but then they shouldn't claim to know what the middle is..

Like people that say, they only like opera, or rock or classics or whatever,, that's fine, but then they shouldn't claim anything beyond that.. Or that the other tastes are wrong, or silly or unsophisticated, etc.. It's all right or alright, g..
