University learning is very beneficial, it teaches you all the things that you should not do. Of course it isn't taught that way. It makes teaching easy if things can be boxified (put in little mental boxes), and the more little boxes you can make, the easier teaching becomes, with a proportionate drop in value. It is the path of lest resistance for those who have lost their passion, or for those who never had any. However, just because the University is such a way, doesn't mean one can forgo ones education, and an education is part of the eduction which one needs. If for no other reason than as to act as a reference point for what doesn't work. Or as Blake said,
"One never knows what is enough, until one knows what is too much!"
As most people will tell you the University is "too much!"
Plus, I would have never made it through Blake without the help of Tom Galbraith, who not only taught me how to drink cheap beer (buckhorn), but also helped open the doors of perception. Now if I could just get Los out of my fucking basement! I mean, I admire his work ethic, but he never stops, constantly banging on something! I say, "Gee Los, give it a break. It's not like you got the world on your shoulders!" He just gives me that Los look, and goes back to banging! God, don't even get me started on the time Fuzon dropped by.

On the off topic of why a Conachlon. It's not just getting the rhymes correct, it's having the lines make some kind of sense, and if we're good, create a transcendent effect...nah, that's going to happen.

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
