Thanks for digging this up Platt. I was reluctant to reply before I had 
access to LILA. I knew that Andre was wrong, but would like to have 
the exact quotes. Moreover this is another indication of the S/O 
intellect as you point to.

Another tactics of Andre is his accusations of people who see the 
obvious S/O-intellect to be my stooges, while it was your early pointing 
to intellect as the underminer of social law and order that triggered my 
realization of the SOL context.

Hi Bo,

Well, like some others here Andre likes to sermonize about what motivates 
people to think the way they do, never permitting anyone -- besides himself of 
course -- to have an original idea. But we've been around here long enough to 
simply smile at such Rigel-like mind-readers.
