CB: Now that I think about it, I think it was A.J. Ayer, not W. , who you
once said this about, maybe.

Roy Wood Sellars who was a leading defender of realism,
naturalism and materialism in the first half of the 20th
century was the father of Wilfrid Sellars, who was one
of the dominant figures in analytic philosophy after
WW II. But then again, Wilfrid Sellars who was the
most analytical of analytical philosophers professed
to be an admirer of Engels.

CB: Jim,  didn't  that hack Wittgenstein , at the end of his career, agree
with Lenin on the main point of _Materialism ' _, the existence of objective
reality ?.
