It's not a myth, at least, not an internet-only myth. That article was published in my newspaper not too long ago. Aside from being a rather liberal paper (and rapidly decaying due to its being dumbed down for the masses) it's more or less reputable, or so I've been told. I, for one, only look at it on occasion, usually for Dave Barry, since any other section is likely to depress me. But, I digress. I have that article clipped out and taped to my wall, because it proves that there is hope for me if this whole music thing doesn't work out.

It's not a waste of time if you enjoy it. You can only grow smarter because of it, since you'll be working with a language completely alien to most people. You might not get to speak it to anyone, but you will definitely acquire further language skills, which is never bad.

And tell her that Fordim Hedgethistle says *sheesh*.

And upon hearing so she will hang her head in shame! Hah!
