Michael,

I had a nightmare myself. I dreamt that I had joined a professional group of artists, and like your dream, I was blown away by their talents, and felt self conscious about my own level of achievement.

At one meeting (presumably after they had parachuted), someone quite innocently inquired about the proper way to sharpen a pencil. The responses came pouring in from the pros. One insisted on a chisel shaped lead, while another said that his work is just fine with a point. One used an electric sharpener, and the others belittled him for it, even though his work was excellent. Screaming and accusations erupted, and finally they all took their pencils, sharpened them in their preferred method, and began attacking each other with them. Fortunately, I awoke before it got too violent.

What a nightmare. I can hardly look at a pencil now.
