Dear Ken
well said - and of course Ranulph was being provocative.
An interesting feature of the every day usage of the two words "design"
and "art" is that while we frequently talk about "designing" we never
talk about "arting" even though the word "arting" has been used,
historically.

Dear Ranulph,
Your brief, Delphic note to the list requires clarification.
You wrote, *Art, of course, means cunning. So does design. QED
(whatever it was that had to be demonstrated, that is).*
This is not quite so. I know you love to provoke debate * so I*ll
add a few points to this.
