Hello,

Individual opinions are interesting and creative and encourage debate and reflexion and such.

What I object to, or not (re Carnegie) is the shoot by positioning without to much .. backup.

I am sure that Theory is not confined to the sciences.

I feel sure that the sciences are not solely depdendent on only theory.

Knowedge Management - which creates a tessalation of views on KM from a rich tapestry of many disciplines (humanities, sciences etc.) can hardly be pooh poohed in such a short and dismissive fashion.

Best regards

Martyn R Jones
