Hi Craig,

Any idiot can look up wikipedia / dictionary definitions (even Platt) ;-)
I was obviously choosing to "create" my sentence by re-arranging the
same words Mark had used.

(If we are going to discuss Anthropocentrism we need to bear in mind
that there are 4 or 5 or maybe 6 different weak and strong versions of
the anthropic principles. Being contentious & debatable - they never
stick on wiki pages more than 5 minutes - so that's the worst place to
look.)

This is the last thing I posted - but it's a recurring theme.
