It's just an absurd philosophy, and no good philosophers take it seriously.

Well said.
Why any self respecting subjectivist/relativist audiophile would give a hoot about objectivist arguments/attacks is beyond me. We should ransack useful tools and leave them blabbering on thier own.
Remarkably enough, both the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy and the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy have articles on Ayn Rand:
http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/ayn-rand/
http://www.iep.utm.edu/rand/
Neither has convinced me that there should be articles on Ayn Rand in philosophical dictionaries.

Are you related, per chance, to the 14th century French philosopher Jean Buridan? :-)
I was amused by Burdan's Principle after reading Carver Mead's book on VLSI design and Leslie Lamport's paper.

Oh Well... Who is John Galt?
R.
With more information and/or a link thereto, your post would be worth of more serious attention. :-)
