Of sorcery and wizards

I had an English composition professor in college who had a motto of "If only I could write as well as my mind creates".  It is that taking what you imagine and telling others about it that is the trick - catching the nuance and the detail without loosing the forest for the trees. 

The Walt Disney Fantasia sequence scared a lot of kids half to death - kids who haven't had the modern day pleasure of Jasons and Halloween 8.  I've always thought that the trick here was that the animators gave you just enough so that you could go home and dream the rest.
