Why?

I have often been asked by friends in the outer world what I would hope to gain from such activities, and the only answer I could give was to shrug my shoulders and say:

"What is the good of trying to justify the useless? The fact that I enjoy the useless effort I have to make, the comradeship that binds me to my friends in the accomplishment of what has no utility."

Louis Potié 1957

Couldn't have said it any better Louis :)
