Anders: <Ugh!> An early version of "The Truthiness of Veneziani's Critique of Marx and the TSSI" (presented at the ICAPE conference, 2007). I hadn't noticed that before. Thanks. Since you mentioned his web page, you won't mind me pointing out that in introducing this paper he refers to Roberto as the "Great White Hope of physicalism"! I think that refutes your point about how they are no worse than others in presenting the perspectives of others whth whom they disagree. Your assessment fits the definition cited by Kliman of "truthiness". In any event, I commend you for at least offering a little criticism of his paper. So - tell us - what do you see as the "contributions" of the TSSI? (please understand, though, that others on the list - myself included - will not necessarily agree with you and can be expected to state their disagreements). In solidarity, Jerry
