There was certainly a lot of misunderstanding. You can go back to the
early history of the article "reality" a little article I created March
11, 2002:

At a certain point Larry will chime in...

His comment is typical of him in arrogant mode, "Start on an actual
article on this subject, with further explanation as to why the former
article didn't really concern the topic" as he removes all prior content
and substitutes his view.

You see, what he taught sophomores in his Intro to Philosophy class
trumps all other content. Note the complete absence of any reference.

At least the intro to the current article is not bad. Not an easy
subject, but certainly one that concerns material outside the discipline
of philosophy. Not long after this he wanted to ban me, but Jimbo vetoed
him.
