    Actually, John, I don't think that I am confused at all. I was
    responding to your example. Sorry, but I think that art,as well as
    language, is a fluid thing. While there are certainly classic
    exmples of art, I believe that using a found object, even unaltered
    and even appropriated, can be art if it is thoughfully responding to
    or commenting on the current world in which it exists. I may not
    like it and it may not be Craft (with a capital "C"), but it can be
    art. You may know quite a bit more about art than I do. But I believe
    that your comments can be interpreted as both myopic and somewhat
    condescending. 

Take care, Andy
