Just listened to it. Very good though it would probably take me to listen to it a few times to take it all in. smile But I got the gist of it, Though Hutchinson disagreed with Mandeville (think was the name) I could see too where Mandeville was coming from (well I think I did) which was maybe best summed up in the old adage ..''its an ill wind that doesn't blow some good''

I had heard of Hutcheson before and sorta read some of his stuff,but hearing it there was better.


Ulster Protestants consider themselves to be a separate nation. This nation they call Ulster
