Since when does Marx = "left jargon"? I can't think of any writer I find more enlightening, even exhilarating, to read.

Lenin's another issue, though. I'm really curious about what of his is relevant to life in 2000. Reimagining a Lenin for today is one thing; making his formaldehyde-suffused corpse walk and talk is another.

CB: Whereas Marx is walking and talking right out of the Highgate Cemetary ?
