CB: >>A demonstration is worth 10,000 words. But ten thousand words can get across the death barrier and a bodily demonstraton cannot .Most of what I'm saying, my premises are anthropology a,b,c. I'm just posing a little esoteric hypothesis for some basic anthropology.<<
Alas, apparently 10,000 words didn't work for the Etruscans or the Egyptians or Ozymandias. I think the only thing necessary for language and culture to get across the 'death barrier' is simply that there is another living generation in existence who can accept them before the previous generation dies off. That is all you have hinted at here as well.
