Why bother climbing Everest? I mean, it surves no useful purpose of any
kind.
Even better: Why climb Everest *today*? It's already been done. It was
pointless the first time, and there's no particular point in somebody
else doing it again today.
Similarly: Why have I just spent over 2 *months* learning to play
Widor's Toccata? I could easily pick up a copy of a true master playing
it on a grand organ, and it'll sound better than anything I will ever
produce. So why bother?
It's a challange, man! To see if it can actually be done. :-D

You can get naked CG models to do things that naked actors refuse to do in real
life. ;-)

I'd make some belittling remark here - but then I basically started
learning to draw so I could draw naked girls. I guess that makes me just
as pathetic. :-S
(Of course, what I forgot is that you have to know what something looks
like before you can draw it. DOH!)

Where do you think people go to learn to draw nudes? How do you think
they get taught?
