     Oh good grief, this again ? I wish you hadn't nroffed it, it would
then at least be easier to read.

     Uh, anyway, for a far more * INTERESTING * (and infinitely easier to
understand just-what-the-issues-are ) read "Brainstorms" by Daniel C. Dennett
($ 10.95, MIT Press ). I'd really like to get into this Godel sentence
business and Dennett's views on AI, but it's the end of the semester....
Has anyone else out there read it ?

     The entire business of epistomological/ontological-ness and so on
has also been treated quite adequately by Richard Rorty "Philosophy and
the Mirror of Nature."

     Wish I could flame at length but I feel that Dennett has already done
this far more eloquently.
