[In the context of this article, members of Humanist would likely enjoy
reading Thomas Kuhn's remarks on the interaction of the innovative and the
traditional, in "The Essential Tension: Tradition and Innovation in
Scientific Research?" in the collection of essays called The Essential
Tension (Chicago, 1977): 225-39. Roughly his argument is that they need
each other. As I may have written before, these essays are wonderful --
read them tonight! --WM]
