	Cool

		The cool aesthetic permeates traditional West African cultures and African-American culture, as well — in fl artistic and musical expression, in the hitch in the "pimp" strut of urban fl men, in dress, demeanor and speech.
		In popular culture, "cool" also often describes someone or something which conforms to a set of social or moral values perceived as countercultural, i.e., which challenge the norms, mores, or values of a dominant group or prevailing regime.

	Writing about cool:teaching Hypertext as juxtaposition
		Cool provides a place to do so; it allows us to work with "all the meanings of the term" (as Ulmer required) in order to expand composition pedagogy in the computer classroom.
		Parallel to Baudrillard’s understanding of cool as the place between the social and the digital (graffiti and binary codes), the students positioned their ideas on social writing (graffiti, fashion, digital sampling) against the HTML code they were learning and found themselves not only writing about cool, but writing cool.
		With cool writing, the notion that the computer-networked classroom is a place for looking outward to cyberspace and its threatening, challenging, different ways of expression for purposes of evaluation and analysis becomes instead the idea that we are already in such a place and that we bring to those situations cultural events, transformations, and strategies.

	Michael Kernan of the Washington Post writes of Eli Siegel and Aesthetic Realism
		All the people of his Aesthetic Realism movement—which sees wisdom for living in the underlying principles of great art—believe that he has discovered a new, and beautifully whole, approach to life itself.
		He gave his first lessons on it in 1941 and gradually expanded it by word of mouth until today there are perhaps 250 serious students, mostly New Yorkers, though a few commute from nearby cities or even hold phone consultations from farther away.
		In brief, the Aesthetic Realism approach is gentle and supportive, asking that people try to truly know themselves and thus to like themselves and the world.

		These qualities of cool render it an essential survival mechanism in a society in which "except for people over age eighty-five, fl males are dying at a higher rate than any other group at any age" (19).
		If coolness is an antidote to (or a palliative of) crisis, X and Davis are eminently marketable conveyors of this 'medicine.'

		Though their emblematic coolness underlies the inviting stances of X and Davis, their commodification on this basis does not erase the truth that "coolness may be a survival strategy that has cost the fl male--and society--an enormous price" (Major and Billson xi).
