You've read "language in thought and action" by H. R. Hayakawa havent you.


I agree compleately though. It's interesting how sceptics of any particular subject will site lack of evidence as proof of absence, and on the other side of the coin the believers will say "Absence of proof is not proof of absence."
Each side has their own map of the territory, but the two maps are vastly different.
I wonder if everything is more mundane than the true believers would say it is, but more fantastic than the sceptics believe.
Makes me wonder, especially when baked. :jointsmile::thumbsup:
