I believe it was a man called Johnson who when asked how he could argue against Berkely's solipsistic model of the world, dropped a stone on his interlocutor's toe and said "I refute it thus". i wonder did something similar happen before the incident described below. "But sir, how could you possibly argue against man being rational calculating animals.?" "Sir, I refute it thus"
