The more I study Dennett, the less respect I have for him. You can read an exchange between Searle and Dennett in Searle's book _The Mystery of Consciousness_ http://books.google.com/books?id=ZqsytrHg8LkC&lpg=PP1&ots=J0mZpr10Fv&dq=mystery%20of%20consciousness&pg=PA95#v=onepage&q&f=false
I seem to remember that somewhere Dennett claimed that he didn't need to produce a complete philosophical theory; but, only a sketch of a theory.
so, if he was any good at it he'd be a sketch artist.
or maybe I'm remembering something some other philosopher said.
