Some wannabe philosopher: philosophokiddies Reading philosophy doesn't make you a philosopher. Clearly; that was my point. But I didn't say anything about reading philosophy. Thinking does. Just random thinking? Hiding in your remote cabin imagining that you understand the world and how and why it is going all wrong? Mad that your magical fixes to everything are just not getting the attention they deserve? There _are_ people talking about improvements and new models, including me. In other more appropriate venues. Those who are serious and thoughtful usually have something better to say than... Fucker. Well, yes. But that's off topic. sdw
