Just a brief interjection (if I may be forgiven such): method=meta + hodos= about in the
senses of throughout, following after, etc + way, path; methodology would encumber a logos
of a following after and along a path, a walking of the pathway, a walking of a walkway, a
pointing to and assembling of some walks along the way. In the sense I am aiming for here,
Heidegger 'is' method: always already on the way, a barely decipherable movement, all ways
in the middle, a long (to be-long-to) the way, an angelic quiver, a travelling cipher in
the midst of the noise of quotidian messages. His thinking's energy derives from the
spring (back in order to leap forward) and glide of the neither/nor, its propulsive
waymaking path: the infinitesimally thin lightning fork of difference, the way of time...
