But daaaaaamn I don't know what it is but I just tone out reading him. I think it's both what I'm interpreting as seeming like it's just obviously false on so many frontiers, and that he treats it all like it's obviously true. I think it must be the sort of description of the mind that a scientist would give, a more particular phenomenology than how it is presented -- because I don't believe there *is* a science of science, much less a science of consciousness, and then Husserl goes off the deep end, so it seems, in Ideas (though, of course, there are interpreters who go a different direction with him too. . . ) Soooo.... it's like I'm reading him to ...
