Message: As a librarian on the subject of civil engeineering and management I am very interested in the Sokal Affair. Cultural studies with respect to science and technology are debated here at the Twente University within the circle of social scientists. More information about the ideas and vision from physisians and other scolars in the field of science is badly needed.

Message: Fifteen years ago or so I found Lacan's "Ecrits" in paperback edition, remaindered at 20F, which I bought, of course: I am an avid collector of nonsense. Having lived in Australia since 1968, I was far from suspecting that his arrant nonsense had spawned a whole industry of snake oil. Satire is the proper weapon indeed. High time, but I fear little can be done. The lacanians are a particularly venomous breed, by which they take after their master. The jingoistic reactions of Le Monde and Le Nouvel Observateur are shameful. Those obnoxious charlatans ought to be denounced flatly and roundly (ahem), not excused. Comme Hara-Kiri, mais sans l'humour, ils sont bêtes et méchants. Mais eux ne le font pas exprès, ce qui est bien pire.

Someone finally had the courage to realize the Emperor had no clothes! Intellectual integrity finally!... I can just see Voltaire reading Lacan and spitting with contempt!

Message: I am a physics PhD student. Good fun reading all about Sokal affair. Reading "Transgressing the Boundaries,..." I couldn't help laughing loud. I reached the quotations and began crying. So far I didn't know that there are philosophers who don't care about laws of nature, nor about logical thinking. (Do they themselves exist? Seems to depend on our opinion.) I had never thought someone would understand(!) physical theories the way they do. O.K., I would communicate with you.

Message: I think Sokal's act was odious. In my field, physics, verbal abuse and intimidation, lack of respect for others, are rife. Sokal's act smacks of that same attitude. If you disagree you're an idiot and must be mocked. I am really sick of hearing tenured professors squeal like victims. Meanwhile I spent five years at Caltech hearing "scientific" explanations for why women can't do math. There was really no science involved, but when a tenured science professor wants to make a political point, he'll always try to make it seem like all of science and reason is 100% on his side. And of course anyone who doesn't see things his way - why that's proof that you're just ignorant. Even if you're a grad student in physics. That's what I mean about the general lack of human respect within science. When can we get past this crap? When can members of the scientific elite start coming back to their own humanity, abandon their authoritarian attitudes, and stop portraying science vs. humanity as some monumental crisis of a new Dark Age? I know I'm totally venting here but as a physicist who is culturally aware, I see a lot to vent over from within physics, and the Sokal extravaganza epitomizes it. GROW UP my fellow scientists GROW UP and learn to accept disagreement without resorting to name-calling and childish pranks to control the situation.

Brad McCormick, bradmcc@cloud9.net, visited on Friday, January 16, 1998:
Message: So there exists an external world independent of language and society, does there? Where else does *that* notion exist than in language and society? As Heraclitus observed, so great is the extent of the Logos that we can never reach its limits.... And yet there is all this verbiage which seems intended to frustrate communication rather than to communicate anything. Another case of "the baby and the bath water"? How did we get from Edmund Husserl's _The Crisis of European Sciences_, with its argument that Galilean sciences were not yet fully rational, to PostModern obscurantism? I once took a course from Norwood Hanson, author of _Patterns of Discovery_ (about contemporary with Kuhn's _Structure of Scientific Revolutions_). Hanson was a trained physicist, and no enemy of science, but he also argued that all observation is dependent on our preunderstandings. Another source is Michael Polayni (_Personal Knowledge_). What does Prof. Sokal think of these people's ideas?
