Just spent a few hours on our sun-drenched deck reading the Preface to Robbie Brandom's *Making it explict*. Alas, I'm no wiser as a result. But since Juergen (Habermas) devotes an entire chapter of his most recent book to a critical analysis of that book, who am I to suggest it's a waste of time? Would much appreciate guidelines, maps, hermeneutic strategies or suitable GPSs to unlocking the foirbidden secrets of Robbie's text. (Is that the same Brandom who wrote an essay entitled "Heidegger's Categories"? Oh, HIM again!)
