Grice on quarks

I was referring to the complexities involved in just browsing at French's bibliographical references for the $tanford entry on individuation in quantum mechanics. Enough to turn Feyerabend back to a good empiricist.

---!

And the body of the essay by French is even MORE complex -- if one (I should, after opera) care to abridge a paragraph or two!
