Dear Prof Zadeh,
Perhaps you could elucidate what you mean by "cointensive"? (I assume this
is explained in detail in your paper, but I also assume that one purpose
of your post here is to convince people that it will be worth investing
the time to read the paper.)
Also, what do you understand

Dear Konrad,
Thank you for raising important questions relating to the
relationship between probabilistic and non-probabilistic approaches to
uncertainty.
The probability community stubbornly holds to the Dennis Lindley
view that standard probability theory is all that is needed to deal
Computation with Imprecise Probabilities--The Problem of Vera's Age
In large measure, real-world probabilities are imprecise. For this
reason, computation with imprecise probabilities is not an academic
exercise--it is a bridge to reality.
