Drieu,

Much appreciated, that was a very useful comment. That is the way my 
thinking on the essay had been going.

I guess that the shape it is taking is to show that PKF's position of 
anything goes is open to interpretation as being anarchistic or not. It 
is however relativistic and this in the realms of science as well as 
politics is self-defeating.

to raise the question up a level I will then find comment on 
feyerabend's response to this being something along the lines of - who 
cares, as you say. He would I feel claim that this doesn't matter as 
long as there is the established way of doing things is shaken up. 
Possibility of fluctuating from facism to anarchism and back and forth.

I fear I'm going off track though.

What do you think?

Any references?

Cheers dude - We all travel together
