Good News Everyone: Jacques Derrida is Dead!!

Unless death is simply a social construction, Jacques Derrida is dead. Why am I glad? French and postmodern.

Kevin the Big Hominid talks about the time he met Derrida and says: Derrida the man isn't a problem; it's Derrida the movement that worries me. The money quote on Derrida goes to Brian Leiter: Alas, he is being referred to as a philosopher.
