There was certainly a lot of misunderstanding. You can go back to the early history of the article "reality" a little article I created March 11, 2002: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Reality&oldid=27840 At a certain point Larry will chime in... http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Reality&diff=356398&oldid=356321 His comment is typical of him in arrogant mode, "Start on an actual article on this subject, with further explanation as to why the former article didn't really concern the topic" as he removes all prior content and substitutes his view. You see, what he taught sophomores in his Intro to Philosophy class trumps all other content. Note the complete absence of any reference. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Reality&oldid=356398 At least the intro to the current article is not bad. Not an easy subject, but certainly one that concerns material outside the discipline of philosophy. Not long after this he wanted to ban me, but Jimbo vetoed him.
