Sort of the "Mozart" effect, huh?  That's pretty cool.  Some of the best
things I feel I've written were done in one draft - a bunch of thoughts just
coalesce into complete thoughts, feelings and ideas.  Other times, the only
thing polishing reveals is how ugly and badly-organized the original
thoughts were.  At times like those, its almost best to throw it out and
start again (for me).

You don't giggle like Mozart did, do you?  :-)

P.S. I enjoyed watching the interviews of you with Space: The Imagination
Station here in Canada.
