We can say "smartass" on this list. At least ~I~ can say smartass... <vbg> BTW, WRT to all this "is reality really real?" discussion, I remember reading somewhere (but I'll be damned if I can remember ~where~) that for all his talk about being and nothingness, when Heidegger walked in a room and saw a chair, he knew damned well that the chair really was ~there~, and if he sat on it, he had every confidence that it would really hold him up! Kant, Heidegger, Husserl, Peirce and all the rest of them still had to live in the real world... <vbg> cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
