As posted earlier, C Wright Mills on Parsons is a good example of what many people should have been doing themselves to their own writing before holding forth. I believe you misconstrue the arguements. Why WOULD someone so bright and well informed as he think these things indeed (and not just he)? From what I have seen, most of the people attempting to trash him on this have not even 1/100th of the experience he has in science, philosophy and social science. I wonder if this isnt some way of attacking the big other or some such...(just kidding sort of)
I'm really curious to see your interview with him; please dont hold back with him.
