My experience is that these cyberreadings fizzle out. But if we're going for anything I'd vote for the Psychic Life of Power. I'd like to see the anti-pomo'sters actually confront a postie text - espeically one that illuminates several things many "Marxists" are not so eloquent on - why the masses don't rebel, how sexed our subjectivity is, and why we turn when the cop calls us.
