Whoops, hoisted by my own petard!

    DPF: Bhaskar's *Dialectic: The Pulse of Freedom"
    PON: *The Possibility of Naturalism*; PON2 = 2nd edition of PON.
    RTS: *Realist Theory of Science*
    SRHE: *Scientific Realism and Human Emancipation*
    RST: Archer's *Realist Social Theory*
    DCR: dialectical critical realism
    RB: really bewildering
    MI: hell if I know, I thought it meant "myocardial infarction"--a heart
attack.  Or Michigan, which may amount to the same thing.  (Or that amazing
oxymoron, Military Intelligence?)

Shamefacedly, T.
