From: Oliver James (ojay) Category: Art Date: 03 November 2008 Time: 12:21 PM Review: "Going on about"....is a derogatory retort implying that the views are in some way nonsensical or impoverished by way of reason, which of course is absolutely the case. Inevitably we all get hot under the collar at the mere mention of the c word, because we are all above that sort of thing, above it, below it, a bit over there or not all there, as they say. "Going on about" indicates a type of impatience with the pliant unless used as an adjective describing the way a space-scooter went wildly out of control and sort of fizzled off into outer space , belching a strong trail of angry vapour. grrr
