Platt: Sometimes, yes. Sometimes, no. But I'll bet their are plenty of mathematicians who don't verbalize their equations. I agree with what Ham said about having non-verbal concepts.
Ron: Sure there are non-verbal concepts, art, music, what I am stressing and I believe Arlo too, is that intellectual concepts align with semiotic rules Of comprehension. So that when we intellectualize about the origins of Objects we are really questioning how we term and understand experience Linguistically. ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ Moq_Discuss mailing list Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ http://moq.org.uk/pipermail/moq_discuss_archive/ Moq_Discuss mailing list Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ http://moq.org.uk/pipermail/moq_discuss_archive/
