On "Kallitechnies/ καλλιτεχνίες"

Some days ago I received an anonymous comment, in highly demotic Greek, complaining about "Kallitechnies".

The word (καλλιτεχνίες) means "The Fine Arts". In the context, I think the writer was being dismissive of blog postings that deal with anything "arty", perhaps implying that "kallitechnies" were not much different from "vlachies".

It's a point of view, duly noted!

I try to mix and match.
