I think Ed is taking a somewhat *charitable* view. The Armchair
Homespun Anthroposociophilosophist comments:-
'I personally incline towards an Existential/Skeptical positon on this,
namely that it is part of the Poster's attempt to Affirm His Existence by
exercise of Individual Free Will mediated through this "leap" of
Individual Choice.
In so doing the Writer (or "Nowplayer", as s/he shall be referred to)
simultaneously seeks to covertly establish, by association with the
Musical Signifier, his/her Credentials as a Possessor of A Certain
Wayward Cool within a Universe of Ambient Significance'
