The 'Publish' checkbox

Why so long between the event (30th March) and the blog entry (18th April, see
below)? Well, I had tried to use Mail-to-Blogger feature, but I hadn't checked
the checkbox labelled 'Publish' (which reads as though it's about publishing the
'secret' Mail-to-Blogger email address, not the posts themselves) and my post
got lost. As Blogging is not the be-all and end-all of my life I was content to
leave it lost for couple of weeks, but now I've found the problem. The
undocumented 'Publish' checkbox.

Art

Something completely different. On 30th March, I went with my (ex-)art historian girlfriend (that is, she used to be an art historian, she's still my girlfriend) to the event described (in german) here.
It's good to know that even in a gathering of artists, art historians and the like, some are sometimes prompted to ask, very vociferously and incredulously "Is that art?". In this case the controversial material in question was the drawings of Pierre Klossowski.
