Hi Daniel, That's an interesting piece of information it would be 
interesting to see those correspondences between yourself and Mr 
Barborka.

Unfortunately I have only just started on the book so cant make too 
much of a comment at this stage, when I read his opening comments in 
the introduction I thought this was a bit synchronous as it tied in 
with what Nigel was discussing.

I read the book "Man the Measure of All Things" some years back and 
found it very mind expanding but while having "Man, Son of Man" on 
the shelf for a few years now have never actually got around to 
reading it, but I'll let you know what I think once I've finished 
reading it what my impressions are.

Regards  

Perry
