Dear Ken,

Thanks for your comprehensive response. Nothing to argue with, though still 
unsatisfied (as I think are many students of Habermas) with this sort of 
thing:

>>The "guarantee" is in the idealization; the impulse toward emancipation.

Reminds me of Kant's warning about taking transcendentalized heuristic 
devices TOO *seriously*; there's a risk of stimulating more rather than less 
false consciousness.

Regards,

MattP
