Hi Carl,

I can't believe you have to explain this, either.  Why can't we cut Plato some slack for literary license?  Why do we want to treat him like a German scientist instead of a philosopher and raconteur?  If we add a dose of context to Plato's tale, we are a lot more likely to arrive at the truth.
