Actually, I read all of Plato's Republic and the 2 slim volumes of
Socrates-by-Plato in a course entitled "The Western Political
Tradition", which I took (as a freshman) in the fall of 1984 at
Brandeis University, from a professor named Kohane, who's now at
Harvard, I think. I made a B+ in the class.
You're doing a good job of making yourself look like a fool. Since I'm
an expert at it, I know it when I see it. Please continue.
