I answered your question. You still can't comprehend the writings of others.... As to this question, a general answer will do. I have *NEVER* met an academic Jazz person who is accepting of the innovations and novel ideas of their students. They are *ALWAYS* hostile. JM experience, I suppose, but I include you in this group.

JM experience, I > suppose, but I include you in this group. In other words, he has never actually met ANY "academic jazz people", but this is the only thing he can think of to weasel out of being exposed yet again. PS: How about answering the other question about which institution you now work at? Seems like it's been asked several times, and you steadfastly evade it.,

JM experience, I >suppose, but I include you in this group. A general answer is what is generally called bullshit because you're unable to be specific. This has nothing to do with your statement and the non-ability to back it up? Your puffery was about Jazz artists, not academics. You are the epitome of a pedantic, blustering, FOS junior college professor who thinks that reading about a subject makes you an expert. Don't you realize that you have continually made a fool of yourself in this thread? You would've looked fine if you had just admitted that your statement was hyperbole. What a dolt. BK

The "academic jazz persons" who comprised the faculty there were never "hostile" and were always "accepting of the innovations and novel ideas of their students." Tell us -- what experience do you have that leads you to think otherwise? |
