Thanks, Fred. And can you fax me the translated table at 716-645-2127 (or
I'll give you a mailing address).
I will deal later with other aspects of Fred posting but the below I can
do quickly: The 1879 article is nothing other than the translation of
*Anti-Duhring* which Plekhanov (p.800) refers to and in which Sieber
foreword says he doesn't dialectics and was part of my demonstration that
of Sieber disconnection from Hegel and dialectics
Also, I don't consider the issue of Sieber a "smoking gun".
