I like getting massages from mediums, and I didn't bother mentioning it because, well&#133I thought you were being clever. Now that I know you were baiting, I'll&#133ignore it just the same. <g>

Patrick: Re> the fatal flaw of correcting my "Medium is the massage" remark. I was certain I'd catch someone on that one . <<
That post ended with something about Greenspan, I just suggested he is
Better called Geernspam.
Yours was a most profound post; far beyond any thing I could do, heaven forbid I would try to correct it.
My Greenspam comment was just my crude way of touching the robe
of a master.
I do not have genus myself but I can usually recognize it, and unless
I'm fooled by the distance you seem to be stuck with it.
I've had a several friends who were both blessed & cursed with
the talent and I are sort of grateful it did not befall me.

For what it's worth I noticed the thin line they often crossed back
and forth between; Genus/Madness it seemed to be as much
Burden as a blessing. George my last gifted friend died on me
3 years ago. Why he let me hang around was a puzzle to me almost
up to the end. But mostly it was because I was some sort of challenge
and had a way of reminding him from time to time not to let himself
become an island. Mostly he liked birds better'n people and had
a large collection of them.

I'm beginning to sound to serious so I better pause for a bit.
I truly enjoyed your post.
