   The fish was by no means bad; but I have reason to believe that my performance in the matter of eating it was not at all a success. It is true that stifling atmosphere, intense heat, and many varieties of nastiness and nudity are not promoters of appetite; but even had I been given a clearer stage and more favourable conducers towards voracity, I must still have proved but a mere nibbler of sturgeon in the eyes of such a whale as Chicag.

   1873, Sir William Francis Butler, The Great Lone Land

   This theme has been explored exhaustively elsewhere in the context of shrinkwrap and clickwrap licenses, but is even more important a concern for conductive creativity.

They create and produce valuable computer software, literary and artistic works, news, and informational content, and contribute immensely to the sum of human knowledge and the public welfare.
