Great Regulars: People don't get in. They're mad.

That is my critique--I think that if we formed right now a money-making venture on how to write the Cave Canem poem, we could do it. And there are certain people who are not going to get in and they are going to be mad. And because they didn't get in and because they do get mad, they may go on and do their best work. It's like August Wilson who was told, "You didn't write this paper. Go home!"
