A rose by any other name...?  

Though I agree these are good ideas...


"There are people who argue, and I have never uderstood the logic of
this, that a radical ought to dissociate himself from oppressive
institutions.  The logic of that argument is that Karl Marx shouldn't
have studied in the British Museum which, if anything, was the symbol
of the most vicious imperialism in the world, the place where all the
treasures an empire had gathered from the rape of the colonies were
brought to together.
     But I think Karl Marx was quite right in studying in the British
Museum.  He was quite right in using the resources and in fact the
liberal values of the civilization that he was trying to overcome,
against it." --Noam Chomsky
