I'd take words seriously for the simple reason that they are an expression
of concepts with which we reason. I hope that this line of questioning is
not indicative of the future behind us: treating the notion of GRAMMAR
lightly (as in replacing grammar with look-up tables), which is a sign of a
failure to distinguish between the concepts of PARTICULAR and GENERAL
(contexuality does not rationalize confusing GENERAL with PARTICULARS). The
distinction between GENERAL and PARTICULAR is an inheritance that I am most
proud of and thankful for.
Thank you,
posina
