Check out this post on Catallaxy for a good interview with a friend and colleague of the late Paul F, philosopher of science, dadaist, man about town, opera buff and prodigious correspondent.

    Thx for the link Rafe,

    From my own comment at Catallaxy.

    "I'm gonna post on this if I can ever get the time. But I'm a Feyarabend man - in so far as I understand the controversy between him and Popper. I take Feyarabend to be arguing that Popper's great quest for a demarcation criterion had failed, and that, as a believer that one moves on when one's position looks like it's been falsified, Popper should have done that too!"

    Stand by Troppodillians! It will be a major post if I ever manage it. To quote Jake Blues "Huge" - I'll be HUGE!.

    On a more serious note, but still in haste, I should get Harry Mackenzie to do an interview with Feyerabend, as he did with Karl Popper. (Link in signature).
