Then she said that "much like me" she had subsequently googled and read more about him. In my response to Elisabeth on May 11, here is what I said: > ""Much like me"? Aren't you being a tad presumptious in insinuating that I wasn't familiar enough with John Mill to know he had nothing in common with modern political liberal philosophy?" > Nowhere did I say or even insinuate that I was "fully conversant" with everything John Mill had said and done. I said I was "familiar enough" with John Mill to know that he wasn't a modern political liberal, as anyone can see above. I then consulted Wikipedia for more quotes and details. > Gabe continues: > > To put it simply you are forever ducking and diving, > I needn't say more, your postings as always give > you away. > > Santosh corrected you and you stand correced!
