Platt said this was from long ago and I would have liked to "refine" it,
but OK.

Thanks John!

When we "are" at the intellectual level we don't go round muttering
endlessly "s/o, s/o, s/o...etc" but forms concepts, ideas, arguments
from intellect's objective premises ("subjective" the scapegoat) and
when these arguments meets the objective criterions they are good
intellect. However knowing MOQ's overview we don't despair over the
objective arguments dissolving if/when pursued into the metaphysics
realm.

I know you love to be the jester of this site.
