Hi Tobin,
 
I have always understood "analytic philosophy" to refer primarily to the analysis of language that was inspired by the later Wittgenstein's rejection of logical positivism.  If I thought CR was very much like this, I certainly wouldn't be willing to invest much time on it.  I don't believe it to be worthless, but I have always regarded it as a leading to a dead end.
 
Best regards,
 
Di k

	Hi y'all--
	
	In an informal context I recently heard someone describe CR as similar to
	analytic philosophy.  Frankly, not being widely educated in the breadth of
	philosophy, I have no idea what this means.  I thought analytic philosophy
	came from Bertand Russell and early Wittgenstein, so my initial reaction was
	"Huh?"  Maybe one of you can explain?
	
	Thanks,
	
	T.
