Thank you — I've never been able to find any actual references to the page, and have found a lot of other people who found the book Sokal and Bricmont cited without being able to turn up the actual quote. I'm not sure your hostility is called for.

At any rate, that quote seems to be something of a weak-man argument that doesn't give us much insight into the question you meant to be addressing. You don't find insight in an odd passage by one particular author in an obscure French publication from 1987 that seems to have mainly been cited by way of disagreement, therefore an entire field of modern scholarship is useless?
