My take on Simon: He has a lot of knowledge, but little insight. My take on Gottfried: He had some knowledge, but he understood very little indeed about anything. Perhaps he was an early champion of Sondheim, at one time I thought he had smart taste. The more I read of his work, the less I thought of him. Unlike Walter Kerr (always an easy name to cite), with whom I often disagreed, but who I thought was both smart and knowledgeable.
