    Josh,

    I noticed all your comments over at my site are gone. Did you delete them?

    Hey Chad, I think what happened is that when I tried to post a link to a paper I got marked as a spambot. I tried to post over there to tell you but it told me my comment was marked and the administrator would have to approve it.

    Sheesh, I’m sorry, bro. A friend installed this really hardcore spam filter and I don’t know how to work it. I found your domain on the blacklist and whitelisted both that and your IP, whatever that means. I can’t find your comments…

    What link were you trying to provide?

    Eh, no problem. Either you get flooded with Russian porn or you risk weeding out the occasional real person. I don’t exactly remember the content of my post, but I assure you it was quite brilliant. I think the idea is that the naturalist only needs to provide a possible source of genuine aesthetic values. This paper:

    http://www.jstor.org.ezproxy.umsl.edu/stable/pdfplus/1424804.pdf

    is a good introduction as long as you have access to jstor. Let me know if you don’t.

    I do have access to JSTOR. But the link doesn’t take me to anything informative. Who is the author and what is the title of the paper? Thanks for the reference, btw.
