   Have you ever been swooped down upon by the   
   newsgroup on/off topic police?   
      
   They're a hilarious bunch, firmly in the grip   
   of the delusion that words contain meaning,   
   when it couldn't be more obvious (presuming one   
   has taken the time to let go of one's faith   
   about the matter so as to actually look into   
   it) that people bring their own meanings to   
   words. They bring those meanings from their   
   private conceptually context, aka mind.   
      
   It gets even more hilarious! When challenged   
   about such, they'll go to a "dictionary",   
   and post the meaning of word(s) in question...   
   which, of course, merely provides more words for   
   themselves and readers to bring private meanings   
   to, all the while pretending they're someone   
   in touch with objective meaning contained in/by   
   those words!
