No ... and I guess that's what got me into this now-absurd loop, when I
mentioned the doctor who said Catcher would have been a short story if
Holden had been so treated....

The debate about madness (or insert some favorite word) and creativity is,
in my reader's eyes, fatally fascinating, but I sense that this is not the
arena to discuss it.  There are so many nuances to the issue, it does
nobody justice to dismiss it flippantly, and it would keep us busy for ages.
