Re: Engels's use of the term "Marxist" -- and Ours

According to Hal Draper, Marx never referred to "scientific socialism"
either, although the term was already around, invented by Karl Grün. Engels
obviously _did_ use it.

I believe it was Engels (or possibly Plekhanov) who invented the term
"dialectical materialism".
