Invention is now the mother of dishonesty?!? Since when? Why didn't I receive the memo?

Then again, invention does lead to the exploitation of the working class while destroying their jobs and promoting rampant materialist consumerism. Hmmm... and come to think of it, it does have some associations with patriarchy and drug abuse too.

Yes, creative it is then. It's got that whole birth, rebirth, fertility, gaia zeitgeist thing going for it.
