critiquing heidegger -1

If it is indeed possible to view the pro-positions of Wittgenstein in his
ground-path of reason (Tractatus) as requiring an overcoming for the
'truth':

"6.54 My propositions serve as elucidations in the following way: anyone
who understands me eventually recognises them as nonsensical, when he has
used them -- as steps -- to climb up beyond them... He must transcend these
propositions, and then he will see the world aright."

then this is even more the case with Heidegger. In his 'Question of Being',
the letter to Juenger, at a certain point in the eludidation of crossing the
zero meridian of nihilism (and thus the business of overcoming metaphysics),
Heidegger begins to cross "Being" out.

Wittgenstein:

"7 What we cannot speak about we must pass over in silence."

Philosophy is this (unspeakable) passover, spoken.

ps: rene, I haven't forgotten to respond to your last piece in response to
me under the subject of "incubation" {principle of reason}; pro-position:
there: lies: the key...
