Actually, I have been since Friday evening, but I only just received permission to put the pics online - and what would it all mean without pictures? Congrats to Maria, my elder brother Mike, and all best wishes to baby Helena for the future!

Will rant about John Searle's intellectually bankrupt misrepresentation of those he disagrees with tomorrow. The fuck.

Date: 2002-12-10 06:58 pm (UTC)As for Searle - from what you said it seems like he's keeping up his reputation for pompous misrepresentation! I first came across it in his ridiculous misreading (and one has to ask whether he read at all!) of Derrida in a debate on speech-act theory. Prompted Derrida to write something on the 'ethics of discussion' which, whether you love or hate Derrida himself, was spot on in that context.
"The fuck" ... lol =) I hope you shouted "you fuck!" at him really loudly across the auditorium ;)
