Zo, Breddy, you leff. Bod thet heppens!
Not long ago, A group of European scientists were using a lead sheet
as a
shield to intercept harmful radiations from some gizmo. One day they
discovered the bombardment with particles had changed the atomic
number and mass of the
lead. "It IS now gold!" they cried, with an alchemists fiendish gleam.
"Watchoo mean it's now gold?" "Look: it's atomic number is now 79
(etc), and the damn
stuff is now sorta yellow! What the hell do you think gold IS?"
I leff? You can leff, too. That's the predicament with all the third
and fourth and tertium quid "genders" they're talking about (you know
who). XY chromosomes, XX, XXY, XYY, etc. etc. Makes things really
difficult to fathom, especially in high school!
Since I know
you're a smarty-pants, Michael, I assume you get my "meaning".
And just remember the fate of the recent-planet, Pluto, now reduced
to the status of a sub-planetary orbiting chuck of ice. All deduced,
btw, by means of recorded instrumental readings, that is, inferred
from derivative information. Kind like when I know what you 'mean' by
nominating derived inferences from recorded stimulations as the thing
you meant.
