     Don't worry, John; we just assume you play softball and have never

Well said, Greg.  Not only LeGuin, but hopelessly elitist sexist antisemitic 
(emoticon of 
man rolling his eyes) TS Eliot makes the same point about the modern 
*dissociation* 
between intellectual and emotional ways of being.  You're also right, IMO, about
the 
reverse snobbery of US culture (remember Adlai Stevenson? that EGGHEAD!). . . 
a-and 
it's even worse if there's a fucking *edu* in your email address!!!
