I was simply curious what list would have met your needs and requirements.

On the schizophrenic issue I'm interested in hearing how you 
understand/read the use of schizophrenia as a metaphor in 
Deleuze/Guattari's work. In one of Anon's emails it said the following...

" And you're just one of the voyeurs on the Deleuze/Guattari list 
anyway. Watching all the schizophrenics from your superior vantage 
point. After all, what exactly do you think schizophrenia means: 
speaking with one clear unified voice? And with one clear unified sense 
of identity. Is that how you imagine schizophrenia? You're nothing but a 
voyeur, hoping to spot any signs of confusion or pain in a list devoted 
to schizophrenia, when you've already admitted you don't care about the 
torture or mutilation of people..."

Is this how you understand D&G's rather strange anti-psychiatric use of 
schizophrenic and schizophrenia ?

regards
steve
