Another problem, acutely noticed by R. Paul against W. O.'s odd Kantian  
meta-Kantian schemes, is that philosophers are never _asked_ for moral  advice.
 
They are asked for _philosophical advice_ (toll free 800-345-9742  
G-E-A-R-Y). 
 
"I hope that if what Mr. Dahmer did to his son was sufficiently terrific he 
 shall be hanged by the balls", someone said.
 
"As to whether he needs neo-Kantian advice, call Geary"
 
Cheers,

JLS
