Not a problem at all (: After all, she's a poet, and what we're 
effectively
studying here is poetry and our own lives ... I've seen her twice 
actually,
I saw her in 97 at an outdoor festival. I was surrounded by people just
weeping and saying `I can't believe I'm watching Patti Smith!!!' And she
was *definitely* worthy. Relevant still after all these years - she says 
a
lot more to me than a lot of female singers I can think of (Fiona Apple,
Jewel, Morrissette - this means YOU!) Funny that Leslie mentioned her
taking her shoes off, because she did that at that rock festival too, 
and
for some reason it drove everyone nuts, they cheered like crazy!

Well, I'm not surprised that she took her shoes off.  Since she recorded 
the song, that's been a trademark.  I must admit, when I listen to her, 
I also often take off my shoes and start "Dancing Barefoot".

Namaste,

Thor
