Commenting as one who does not specialize in philosophy, it often seems 
to me that he who utilizes the highest concentration of terminology, or 
who selects the most obscure and/or ambiguous terms, wins. Very 
un-Nietzschean.


John Morgan, Research Secretary   CAHILL: "You create strong feelings, 
The University of Michigan         but you won't give us any easy answers." 
Alzheimer's Disease Research      KUBRICK: "That's because I don't have any
Center (MADRC)                     easy answers."
