Thank you, the author gave no indication of who the hell he was talking about.

It is written for Jody Sherman though, not for an audience.

I personally never heard of him, but I appreciated the writing anyway. It is a beautiful piece.

I don't know. Jody Sherman probably can't read it, and it says "Be Sociable, Share!" at the bottom.

Actually, I think the idea of "published" on the web means it is for an audience. I appreciate yuvadam providing the context as I was baffled, too.

I can only speak for myself, but I put a lot of stuff up there which is simply like talking or painting or jamming at an open window to me: anyone is free to stop by and watch and/or comment, but I always feel free to be as personal, or incomprehensible, or random as I want to be. I don't get paid to provide a certain service in my personal space, I don't even have to explain myself to anyone; so you know what, I don't. And if someone else posted it to another site, that's something else entirely.

No, that's why it has a more explanatory, as opposed to personal, title on BI.
