Infinite monkeys and so forth.              Olcott already said it was a semantic tautology, after all. Which is a       fancy way of saying that it's a system for universal semantic analysis       so it contains all possible meaning associations including those that       are of the body of human general knowledge.              Once he said it was a semantic tautology it was not possible to be       surprising.              The difficult bit is as for a sculptor; to carve away those things that       are /not/ wanted.              --       Tristan Wibberley              The message body is Copyright (C) 2025 Tristan Wibberley except       citations and quotations noted.
