John O., Class is nothing more than treating people with respect but it can
be taken to far to mean station in life the difference just amounting to
material possessions and how one earns his bread. Many of those who think
they have class try to parlay it into social leverage while those they think
have no class usually are those who are intimate with the labors that result
in the sweat of the brow. Those who think they have class usually just have
ornamentation. Now Vonnegut can be quite the ass which as far as I know is
the opposite to class but hey who says that the popular notion of class
really matters John O. the defender?

And Daniel, who feels qualified to announce that Vonnegut has no class
(which should convince anyone who had doubts that Vonnegut is as classy and
responsible a writer as they come), also writes:

"Class is like chalking your hands for a better grip but unchalked hands
aren't that much less tacky just maybe more sweaty."

And once again I feel compelled to point out that I have no idea what this
means, but I suspect it is simply incoherent.
