...to gracefully and diplomatically offer tidbits and the odd rare pearl to those few found questioning minds which may benefit from a kernel or two of suggestive passivity. my best results come from smiles and empathic eye-catchings, and perchance a thoughtful convo; imput heralds from a full earful of the other person's take on matters and that rules the direction, flow and tone of any convo which may organically ensue. passive suggestion based on the other's questioning who is not yet knowing the pregnant implication of the question is that direction in which the artform lies, imo, and the other's enthusiasm or lack thereof dictates the success of the venture. usually the kind and friendly listening in and of itself rules the day. mark
