"All art is dream, and what the day is done with is dreaming ripe, and what
art moulds religion accepts, and in the end all is in the wine cup, all is
in the drunken phantasy, and the grapes begin to stammer." - some drunk
English aesthete.

I guess that Art Nevo was the time that Cherbs were so very popular. As the
seller stated, he doesn't know very much about this clock, and obviously that
could be expanded to cover a few other topics also.

I believe Devo [pop group of the 80's] represented devolution. Perhaps Nevo
is a small movement representing new evolution [redundant?]. Hmmmm?

I've got an anti-FAQ list, but have not posted it in ages. It seems
that it's considered rude to list such oddities, even when no name
is attached. Of course, I think it's rude to attack me for doing so,
but I'd rather be thought of as the nice one and let the others'
words speak for themselves.
