Well I believe in the desirability of an optimal society.

A play that works well and is done quite a lot - I've never done the math - but it's probably more remunerative than a movie.

To the engineer, all matter in the universe can be placed into one of two categories: (1) things that need to be fixed, and (2) things that will need to be fixed after you've had a few minutes to play with them. Skill without imagination is craftsmanship and gives us many useful objects such as wickerwork picnic baskets. Imagination without skill gives us modern art.

My scripts are possibly too talkative.
