    Believe it or not, no matter how late I ever stayed up, The National Film Board of Canada never played that one on the T.V. It’s new to me.

        It’s relatively easy to publish a cartoon like that in 1946. Obviously I understand that it’s not necessarily about what it’s about, but it’s still easy to publish a cartoon like that in 1946. I’ve always held the troublesome opinion that you can’t make a truly great cartoon unless you’re at risk of getting beheaded. And I don’t feel like I’ve made any strides today towards getting my head chopped off.

          I understand. The pursuit of the tormented artist content creator. I agree that is the one who produces the - to use your words - truly great work. Maybe next time we can look at some war-period Toyen ink.

          This has been an inspiring exchange. I daresay am a little bit less certain about everything.
