I read the Chomsky rebuttal immediately after having finished _Beyond

negative assessment--much more negative than mine had been--but if it
was factually unsound, I didn't know enough to see where. I'm open to
being set straight on that (I mean that honestly, not as some kind of
rhetorical flourish).

It's Finals week so I can't wade through it now, but based on
Chomsky's interview comments in the last couple of years (I posted
the reference earlier) I suspect that his points are the same ones
that he made in his review of Verbal Behavior.
MacCorquodale dealt with that 30 years ago; and more recently David
Palmer (reference also posted earlier).
