Anbesol. I don't disagree with you violently, but I do still wonder what causes idiot savant syndrome. That seems to indicate for me that at least in music, there is something innately biological about vast skill in at least its technical aspects.

I draw somewhat competently but really had to struggle to get there. And I have watched people work quite hard and never really quite get it.

I do think that it is VASTLY easier for some than others. I also believe that almost anybody can learn to be creative. It is a gray area.

As I believe Freud said, nature is polymorphously perverse. Hey, another good company name.
