    '... are you simply dismissing an entire tradition within
    Western intellectual thought ...?'

    OOer, John. Trying to chill my blood? Calling in the Hun
    Heavies, are you, to give me a good biffing? Well, they don't
    impress me, buster: not Hegel, not Hitler, not Husserl, not Himmler,
    not Heydrich, not even Heidegger in his little leather pants &
    his little gold swastika.

    (There you go. Smear by nominal association.)
 
    I certainly couldn't improve on your quotation. It illustrates
    admirably that if a man comes from a family of obscurantists
    (as with schizophrenics) he'll tend to unintelligibility himself.
    He isn't, of course, excused thereby.

    Scottie B.
