I\'ll bet most people will respond with accusations that the writer is arrogant when he rejects Death of the Author and suggests and that he knows his own work better than another. Uh, right. Not only is this laughable, it is hypocritical. Let\'s look at who\'s pointing the finger: what they are, are consumers. Not makers, but passive grazers, taking from the world and giving nothing in return. And they have the appalling nerve to contend that THEY know more about a body of work than the one who spun it from whole cloth, from the depths of his mind and imagination? And THEY are self-important enough to believe their words are worth more? Really?
