Well, its association with creativity is indisputable... but it's such
an
ugly word.  Makes me think secretions. <G>  Like pulchritude, an
amazingly
ugly word that means "beauty."  Why are there ugly words to describe
beautiful things, and beautiful words to describe ugly things?  Like
_diphtheria_.  Absolutely beautiful word!  That is, if you pronounce it
as it should be pronounced, with an /f/ instead of a /p/.  Oh well,
it's all a matter of taste, I suppose.
