And of couse, you wrote "will to live" rather than Nietzsche's "will to
life". A good example of a subtle but very significant nuance. Will to live
can be interpreted as Spinoza's "self-preservation" which this list had a
recent discussion about, whereas will to life is much less easily so
construed.

Give me a good laugh and define "anti-Semite" without resorting to jejune
Darwinism, you'll be totally tongue tied.
