i am sorry if i'm being demanding, but it sounds as if your
counterpoints are simple disagreements, that's really not what i'm
looking for in this discussion - X is true! No, it isn't! is not my
favorite type of argument - i have provided some textual references,
you didn't, i said that zizek points out many times throughtout the
book that he wants to talk about deleuze as a philosopher of the
virtual and thus as dealing with the emergence of the New - you
haven't provided any texts for your position. where do you think
zizek states that his purpose in the book is *to construct a plateau
[my spelling]*? i honestly start loosing interest in this discussion
because i'm not very excited about simple exchange of feelings -
you're obviously annoyed with zizek, but can you leave that aside?
