Otherwise, I suspect we won't even think of doing it; we are far too lazy. Also, I am sort of against "highlights". Sort of. I can't deny that there is such a thing as highlights, but I don't like the idea of reifying the notion. Highlights is a state one gets into, not a product? Another list-philosophical issue. > Another couple of thoughts for lists: Walter Benjamin (or angelus novus?), > philosophical pop-up books. There used to be a Benjamin list on thinknet, when thinknet was on world.std.com. I suspect that it still exists as benjamin-AT-think.net. It was almost always completely dead, and we decided that it would be better to just have a frankfurt-school list. Do you know about the f-s list, Tom? It's been pretty inactive, and could use a good Benjamin discussion. - malgosia ------------------
