Well, it's not Proust, so who cares. ( )

Many of those interviewed gave flip answers, some even giving the same one-word answer to several questions. Apparently they wanted to give an aura of cleverness and "coolness". As celebrities, I suppose, they must contstantly groom and maintain a certain image. Perhaps they feared giving true responses would reveal a certain vacuity or unattractive vanity. I found it interesting that the writers interviewed gave longer, more verbose responses. Of course, expressing and communicating ideas is their mode of relating to the world. At least two musicians wanted to come back as an instrument. Wow!. Ray Charles gave honest answers of deep thought. ( )
