If it is treated from the profoundly original, enlightening point/ angle/concept, it will do it. Boris Shoshensky Kivy's demand for profound subject matter invites us to question this bromide we've inherited from the late 19th Century. What does "profoundly original" mean that beyond just "very, very different" ? And what does "enlightening" mean that's beyond just "additional information"? Can these phrases remain important without some notion of profundity? ____________________________________________________________ Weight Loss Program Best Weight Loss Program - Click Here! http://thirdpartyoffers.netzero.net/TGL2231/c?cp=uyOphfZEcQykZDyxtxthrwAAJz6c l_zTaptgNR5c8Mer1v9kAAYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEUgAAAAA=
