PS
I do think you are missing the useful stuff in Rorty,
but in fact I do agree that anti-realism is too strong
in thinking that not speaking nature's language implies
that there is no way to have a conversation with nature.
But critical realism is also keen to avoid correspondence
as well. To not coin a way crtitical realism is the third way, ha ha.
