Just in case it isn't clear, this whole "multitudes" thing is Negri, not
Holloway.  He has gone back to Spinoza, who is nothing if not abstruse and
turgid (note, intentional word choice:).  Not that John Holloway and the
folks who used to put out Common Sense always made life easy, but they
tended to be much clearer.  Negri is awfully painful to read, IMO.

Anyway, enough defending Senor Holloway.  Just wanted to be clear on whose
much was whose.

Cheers,
Chris
