I didn't think a mention of Derrida would bring about a charge of irrelevance 
or of attempting to undermine the reading of Slow Learner.  The Great Quail 
has done a magnificent job of bringing "Low Lands" to us, & if I can do half 
as well on "Entropy" I would feel satisfied.  As for Derrida, I had never 
heard of him three years ago when a long thread on this list hipped me to 
him.  I have read parts of Derrida for Beginners by Jim Powell (a slim tome 
that I believe may be more familiar to many p-listers than they would care to 
admit), & I find Margins of Philosophy works better than pills as a 
soporific.  

So there, Tess, next time don't go off half cocked.
