This is getting irritatingly amusing. Kramer writes in "How to do things with Urmson":
"Being, as you say, not burdened by philosophy (code, I suspect for "embarrassingly clueless"), I protest the interestingness of this inquiry."
-- which, knowing _him_ is _not_ a case of 'the lady doth protest too much' (Grice WoW:ii).
I can accept ALL your protestations BUT this one! How can it NOT be interesting?
I pray you try on your perpetual-adolescence thing. Philosophers are perpetual adolescents (as Green calls us in "The decadence of England: the children of the Sun").
You _have_ to have fun. You have to find what's otiose and stupid prety "philosophical" in parts.
-- Your burden is the unburden of philosophy!
Etc.
