[comp.cog-eng] Buzzwords versus enlightment, Re: What's in a name again, Fish face?

	No matter how well round people are in the field of Cognitive
	Science, I wonder how many people would have entered this
	field had it been called "Cognitive Philosophy"?

	Curiously enough, if society truly valued the well rounded, 
	"enlightened" education that is supposed to be needed to 
	truly do good work in this field (and most others), perhaps 
	philosophy would have become the buzzword that everyone wanted
	to tag on their field of study, and science would be demoted
	to a domain only for "narrow-minded" individuals

	A interesting possibility at least.
