I would like to point out just one error in Mr. Dzenkowski's post.  He
thinks that mention of the Madman in recent posts is a reference to
Nietzsche's breakdown.  This is simply wrong.  The Madman refers, of
course, to Der tolle Mensch in Die Froehliche Wissenschaft, aphorism #125,
and *not* to Nietzsche or his Breakdown.  I would have thought that such a
formidable Nietzsche scholar as Mr. Dzenkowski would have known this
already.
