	Regarding gay scholars who have their noses in the air:

	It is too bad that a discussion of whether or not Foucault's body 
could have been written in a much more complex and shifting 
manner than in the unidirectional narrative in which it was written 
degenerates into a discussion of whether the book contained 
anything of value to the average scholar.    I am sure, after all, 
that there are lots of average scholars who might believe that to 
problematize writing the body of a postmodern thinker who spent a 
great deal of time philosophizing about the body is a challenging, 
fascinating and rewarding task to take on.  they don't have to have their 
noses in the air to be interested in this, and they don't have to be gay.
