    Hi Paul

    I have delivered an analysis of you "theses" in a separate post,
    just one point.
      
    14 Nov. you wrote:

    > Then intellectual level > SOM

    I'm not sure how your logic goes, you use the = sign then the >
    sign, but it looks like saying:

    "If intellect equals rationality and rationality equals SOM then
    intellect equals SOM". Which is clear enough, but is it a counter-
    or pro argument? You opened your thesis post with saying:

        I agree with the recent suggestion by Rebecca Temmer
        that rationality is a good definition of the intellectual level.

    This looks like saying that the intellectual level=rationality. Then
    in your post of 11 Nov.

        "Here I think the "classic pattern of rationality" is a
        reference to something like a dualistic S/O rationality

    And this looks like saying that rationality=S/O and if so ..voila!!
    Maybe "classic rationality" has some special significance? In that
    case what is non-classic rationality?
