Hmm, I seriously doubt that Foucault considered Reich "bourgeois ideology".
But I may be wrong.  However, I am not sure what relevance that has to the
preceding discussion.

Why does it have to be a "computer scientist"?  Just to shift ground?
OK, I consider it shifted.  My poor house was built on sand.

It's true that my sarcasm is churlish, but the temptation is just too great,
because you're so unbelievably stiff.  I have a hypothesis that you were 
born as a logical positivist, and then born again into the Postmodern.  
See, here I go again; it's irresistable.  If one is me, that is.
