I'll never get tired reading your deep-megaintelligent comment's on other's people art,I see in your statement's strokes of Moravia-Cortazar-Che-Cardenal just to name a few,I really,really like it and I hope you don't take as ironic...Adolfo,sincerely at your service

I am deeply honored by your sentiments and respect. I truly believe that serious discourse is the only way to truly enlighten and solve problems. Action without a proper mindset is wasted, but also a brilliant thought unexecuted is a worse crime.
