- hmm, well I *do* agree, love the texture, but what I meant, imprecise as
ever, was the reduction of text to _just_ texture in those contexts,
another form of readimix, it might as well be that chunk of Ceasar they
use in type samples, or the bits of Bach they use on headsquares and
hankies, so that I want, don't ask what, but *more* than that. To have
that faith in what the words do there. Texture is part, and I love it as
that. Can't you sense me trying not to use food/drink analogies?
And thanks, Ira, for leading us into this. Onwards!
