EE Cummings spent
searching and replacing?
Because I spend a lot of time searching and replacing
and I wonder if that was a big part of his life too?

he would use pencils or pens dipped in fine ink, cut and paste shapes, was alot more primitive than you, you are funnier, and a hell of a lot stronger and quick with the guitar pick.
