I am planning to revise for clarity the key ideas I am airing-out on Dagzine about names and economy. I have been busier this month as a student and teacher than I am accustomed to; I must learn to say NO.

A few of my ideas below are presented a bit too awkwardly, I think, to make complete sense. So, while many of you are at AWP (and have some fun, too,) I will attempt to reflect on points I have made recently--looking back from my latest response re: Ron Silliman's ideas on anonymity to my post re: poetry as a "gift-economy".
