bodhisattva,

it seems to me that your keen on exclusion, so i can respect that. but i see no difference between a person you would consider a genius and the plumber whose work allows the genius to shit comfortably, or the dry cleaner who does his clothes, and the practically endless parade of people who play a supporting role in bringing about the conditions suitable for a genius to do works of genius. this is because i'm obsessed with honoring the process of life rather than picking it apart and honoring only those portions of it which appear exceptional to me. this is a severe divide between our respective modes of thought (i.e. opinion), and i thank you for aiding my recognition of it.
