Catching up on my list reading today. Always get a kick out of those
resurrected Paul Rand quotes!
Glen, I was interested in your original post on the subject of talent. I
would be interested to know more about what is behind your
question/statement regarding the role of talent.
You said: "We urgently need to understand talent to understand even the
slightest amount of design."
Can you say more about what it is that you are trying to figure out there or
what it is that you are urging others to figure out?
thanks
