Huh?  Man, I'm tired of repeating the same responses to the same
questions.  You seem to be quoting Ken Presting's remarks on my
previous posting.  Read my response to his.  Ken's reference on Kant's
a priori -- "categories" as in the category of substance and
the category of causality -- was based on his wrong interpretation of
my comment.  [I'm still curious how he ended up jumping onto the
word category and miss the whole point of my reference to Descartes'
methodology.]  You're talking something totally unrelated.
