I set up a forum discussion thread (to which substantive comments should be posted) here: Responses to Nussbaum's Criticism That Epicureanism Is Not A Real Philosophy; That Epicureanism Numbs Intellect And Critical Thinking

Thank you for adding this Jason! Some how I did not get a notification of it so I did not comment earlier. Did you see it appear in a notice yourself? I picked it up only from the Dashboard.

I do not recall if I received a notification of the file being uploaded. If I did, I ignored it.

Thanks I will check into that - maybe there is a setting that can be fixed.
