On Thu, 29 Sep 2005, glevy@PRATT.EDU quoted Marx:

>>  "The materialisation, etc., of labour is however not to be
>>   taken in such a Scottish sense as Adam Smith conceives it.

I've always read the "Scottish" reference here as meaning
"literal-minded".  Whether the stereotype of Scots as particularly
literal-minded has any validity is another matter.  Compared to
German philosophers, perhaps.
