Almost FOUR years later and I still haven't read this article in detail (that I can recall). However today I see (as Academia sends it to me for the 100th time) that it does have a very interesting first page showing divisions of philosophers and commenting how Democritus an Epicurus are not at all always in the same camp, and how Sextus apparently places Epicurus in the same camp as the Stoics and Plato on this point.
