More from the classroom

The highlight of today's (Good) class was watching the lecturer trying to explain to a bunch of uncomprehending students the idea that there's no such thing as truth and everything is subjective because all truths are expressed through language, which is inherently subjective. It was a major diversion from the intended topic, but very entertaining.

And I've just remembered that I went to read the Wikipedia article on Derrida last week, as background reading for this class, got sidetracked into the Talk page by the disputed factual accuracy notice, and from there into reading about Wiki edit wars, and read barely a word on Derrida. I was just about to make another attempt before being distracted by this entry. I have no work ethic :-(
