I stopped trying to read the original posting because it didn't use a
convenient paragraph structure and because it used some kind of font
override that made the text two points smaller than what I'm accustomed
to. Furthermore, it shifted the color to a blue-ish hue which comes out
rather blurry on my monitor (yes, I paid $400 for a 19" 4:3 monitor, it
is top of the line).
So no, I'm not going to read it because I feel insulted by it that I
should be expected to expend extra effort to parse it when, in all
likeleyhood it is just more drivel. =| Normally formatted quoted text is
shown for comparison's sake.
Your criticism that the part of my summary that you have read so far
lacks an Operational Definition is nonsense. Since you are not a not
an active programmer or programmer analyst in the nascent field of
AGI, you are in no position to understand a speculative scientific
theory of AGI.

Artificial imagination is also necessary for AGI.Imagination can
take place simply by creating associations between concepts but
obviously the best forms of imagination are going to be based on
rational meaningfulness.An association between concepts or
(concept objects) which cannot be interpreted as meaningful is not
usually very useful. So it seems that if the relationship is both
imaginative and potentially meaningful it would be advantageous.An
association formed by a categorical substitution is more likely to
be meaningful so I consider this a rational form of
imagination.However, you can find many examples where a
categorical substitution does not produce a meaningful
association, so perhaps my claim that it is a rational
