Frank Zappa Compares

Informationis not knowledge.  Knowledge is not wisdom.  Wisdom is not truth.  Truth is not beauty.  Beauty is not love.  Love is not music.  Music is best.

--Frank Zappa.

I first saw this quote on a t-shirt someone was wearing at a Phish concert.  It was a strange concert experience: nearly all of the audience were teens and twenty-somethings, soaking wet from the rainstorm that had drowned them on the hill at Alltel Pavilion.  My friend Amy and I (average age ~36 at the time) showed up late (after the storm) and in business clothing.  We sat in the Gold Circle seats where waitstaff took care of our beer and food.  Tickets were courtesy of my friend Tarus, who continued his kindness over the years, most recently by selling me the you-know-what.
