I just re-read it. It makes NO sense to me. I cannot argue for or against
it, for I cannot parse it at all. It makes many references to external
philosophical ideas with the expectation that one will understand them in
sufficient detail to determine how they differ from your own. In my case,
at least, this is not so, and I find myself having retained nothing after
reading the article.
