One thing to note is that everybody that "writes" these myths are part of a generation of some sort, thus revealing their generational perspective when writing. But I would not get these writers confused with the message, as each writer has his/her own agenda to writing such myths. One reason, which I hope is the most important, is to sell and to sell well.<BR/><BR/>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22928991.post-63139838479698704822007-08-03T23:29:00.000-04:002007-08-03T23:29:00.000-04:00A very interesting and well thought-out post!A very interesting and well thought-out post!MoEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14943621518756464124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22928991.post-27114590644048376542007-08-01T20:11:00.000-04:002007-08-01T20:11:00.000-04:00You're right!
