I have used the Internet. I avoid wingnut sites, though. So I probably missed your sources.

Did you dismantle koan? Much to your chagrin, I don't read most of your posts. No sense.

OK:

Turns out Plato, who was literate (and therefore quotable today), was not a fan of the written word. His mentor Socrates, Gleick reminds us, was illiterate. Well, OK, that's not fair.
Socrates wasn't illiterate, he was, in Gleick's words, a “nonwriter.”
