I don't know much about his ideas to begin with, so a specific request is
pointless. I suppose I want someone to explain F's importance in language I
can understand. I've watched his exchange with Chomsky several times, and
each time F simply lost me. It seems he engaged in a form of techno-speak,
understood by the Smart Ones or those otherwise "inside," but to me it
sounds like verbal wanking.
