I never quite knew where Kaufman was drawing the line, but that tension is where art comes from. Someone else mentioned Neil Young, who I cared for less (perhaps it's that southern thing in me), however, I place him in the same category of artist who uses "tension" to cause us to think.

I was at the session/intervention on Saturday. During parts I found myself saying, "is Dave serious about this or that, or is he just playing a role?" Very similar to Andy. By playing a role and iliciting a response Dave gets you to think about something that you might not normally have considered.
