It is not correct. I always annoy crowd by saying that art has certain objective criteria. Boris Shoshensky

Everyone else denies it, but eventually, everyone will sneak such a notion into one of their sentences. So, now I am beginning this ongoing thread to catalog the ongoing examples that appear on this listserv. Beginning with: "Samuel Johnson wrote most of his good stuff solely to get money" Cheerskep (2009/02/24) Perhaps, Cheerskep would happily replace "good stuff" with the phrase "stuff I think is good" or "stuff that gets anthologized the most". But .. that's not what he wrote -- and if anyone here is able to choose the best phrase for what he has in mind -- it would have to be Cheerskep. *************** Other examples will follow as they appear in our discussion. ( I am sure that very soon William will be telling us something about "the best painting" ) ____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ Lose up to 20 lbs in one month with a new diet.
