10:46 Can't the contextualist say that no epistemic debate can be had independent of the contextualist/invariantist debate? For example because the traditional concept of knowledge is defective and there are only context/background knowledge relative credences or something like that. Have you read DeRose's The Case for Contextualism and The Appearance of Ignorance?

P1-contextualism is epistemically justified only if empirical beliefs are epistemically justified; P2-if skepticism holds then empirical beliefs are not epistemically justified; P3- skepticism holds; C- contextualism is not epistemically justified. I think that will make the argument clearer. We attack p1 by saying: we know about contextualism a priori. We may attack p3 by saying: we have no reason to say that a veridical case is phenomenologically like a skeptical case,we can say it appears to us that way but it's not.
