works as they *ought to be considered*: not broadsides from a *finer

capable of *instantaneously* being transformed into a *monograph
complete*, to wit a "book without book". The guide of American
Humanists since *ever* and fundamentally not "transformed" by threads
hung by his later wives and since. Truly the greatest work of American
philosophy ever. Accept no Bob Brandom. But, of course, I mean it "in
a spirit of charity for all and malice subtracted by and by". Or
something. Forget to ask Jerry.
