I"d like to start by thanking the organisers of this symposium, and especially Nathan Oaklander, to whom I and all other B-theorists are also indebted for his most effective championing of our cause over many years. I"m also very grateful to all my three commentators, both for their kind remarks about my book, and for the time and trouble they"ve taken to produce such important and incisive comments. I hope therefore that they will forgive me if, in order to leave as much time as possible for general discussion, I reply only briefly, and only to their main criticisms, leaving unstated, but not unappreciated, our points of agreement.
