Hey Jon, I completely get why the "I tell it like it is" mood of this piece has taken you to write this sentence, but I think humanity will face extinction before it sees the bottom of that jar.

Take Romeo and Juliet. You sure it would've flopped? Cause West Side Story is "if Romeo and Juliet burst into song," and Titanic is "Romeo and Juliet on a boat."

I think the more ideas we have, the deeper the jar. We just have more material to riff on.

Cheers!
