   Interesting Mr. Scott how you're out here defending a troll, using odd   
   snipping techniques and taking aspects of different definitions and   
   extrapolating out of it your own biased view rather than honestly   
   looking at the definition.  Art indeed can be entertainment.  But it   
   doesn't need to entertain to exist nor the does human impulse to create   
   art exist solely as a need to entertain.  Get a real dictionary and try   
   to isolate each definition.  Read a few history books on art and then   
   get back to me.   
      
   Virtually yours,
