Interesting to me is whether this "the" "radical skeptic" you're mocking is as it seems to be. I'd say it has the odor of a very convenient rhetorical strawman.
When practicing logic, don't forget the importance of ontology, as one could learn from epistemology. But then, that's a lot of work, and that sort of thinking "is" "pedantic".
