Oh for fuck's sake.... every time some idiot goes mental, he/she always publishes a "manifesto." Long winded, unreadable, fantasy-filled manifesto! Give me a break. The Unibomber had a manifesto, and so did every crackpot who has graced our culture over the past 100 years. It's tedious, really. Find anyone writing a manifesto, and you'll find a first rate kook. Karl Marx had a manifest, and he was probably the kookiest of all. Any time you see "manifesto" in a headline, just think "kook" and move on.

EDIT: One more thing.... the rarefied air of the UCLA Philosophy Department makes this the tiniest tempest in the most irrelevant teapot I've ever seen. OOoooo, trouble brewing in the UCLA Philosophy Department!! UCLA could cancel the entire program and the world would never take note of it. The world might be a far better place if they DID shut that department down.
