Hi all,

Sorry, but 'anglicanization' (see below) was a malapropism (Freudian
slip??) for 'anglicization'.

Hi all,

FYI, re previous discussions,  Christopher Norris, *Quantum Theory and
the Flight from Realism* Routledge 2000, now out, argues a realist
position re quantum mechanics by espousing 1) alethic as distinct from
epistemic realism (which he claims is basically the position Einstein
defended against Bohr) and 2) a correspondence theory of truth.

The new *Alethia* is now out. For details see below.

Certain pedants are apparently saying that we have got the spelling of
*Alethia* wrong. In classical Greek it is *Aletheia* with the first *e*
long. They haven't heard of anglicanization, apparently.
