In reply to Randy Jackson... <Lightly dismissing any approach to understanding probably is ill-advised.> I'm not sure if you are intentionally agreeing with me, but thanks for the above statement. My comment about the fantasy of empirical science is based on the fact that it is impossible to be totally objective, even about the subject to study or the methodology to study it. We all carry our mental baggage, which affects everything we do, even if we think it is empirical. I am interested in what feminists can bring to geography, i.e., has does their baggage affect geographic thought? (typo: how does...) If you are threatened, I am sorry. It is unintentional; I don't want to frighten you or anyone else. ----------------------------------------------------------- Jim Benenson Internet: TNGSDISD1@TECHNET.NM.ORG GSD/ISD/OCS Telephone: 505-827-2431 715 Alta Vista FAX: 505-827-2325 Santa Fe, NM 87503 = New Mexico State Government = -----------------------------------------------------------
