So basically, it doesn't bother you that writings of yours that you acknowledge to be incorrect are more widely available than your corrected version. I suppose it is a real tragedy, really just too bad, that institutions with whom you are closely afiliated continue to publish the incorrect version instead of the corrected one. Really just too bad. Deplorable. Oh well, what can a simple writer do? Asking a fellow-traveler to protect your integrity is just, well, impolite. Yes, really impolite.

I noticed that the ISE has a new on-line forum.
http://www.social-ecology.org/forums/

Perhaps I should go over there and mention the problems with the posted version of the article. After all, you yourself have already acknowledged them. Anyone else care to go over there and make your views on Peter Staudenmaier's articles known? The forums there don't seem to be getting that much traffic.

Hi Daniel, you wrote:


"HAVE YOU ANY INTENTION OF UPDATING THE SITES WITH THE OLD VERSION?"


I already sent the revised version to SIMPOS, PLANS, and the ISE a very long time ago. Did you read Sune's post or not? What he's upset about is that I didn't keep pestering the respective webmasters of those sites after I sent it off to them. If you're asking if I intend to start pestering them now, the answer is no. Authors like that are annoying. It's hard for me to see why this would make a significant difference to you, since the revised version still contains all sorts of errors, in your view. You and I look at the same Steiner text and come to opposite conclusions about it. I think the notion that black people are substantially determined by childhood characteristics is racist. I think the notion that Native Americans were destined to die out because of their racial character is odious. It seems to me that this is what we ought to be discussing.
