The following point is probably the best quote:- "In each of these examples, the problem with translatability is that there are no containers to place meaning in target languages, unless that language has a similar referential type." It's one of those things which is so obvious, and yet goes unsaid way too often. Dr. Prueitt uses the examples of Marx/Pavlov scientific materialism as interpreted by USSR and the USA during the cold war, and of Hopi Indian sand drawings. I could add translations of the Tao Te Ching, Vedic texts, or pre-historic cave paintings to the mix. I'm not sure that I agree with Dr. Prueitt's suggestion that non boolean logic (analogue) is classed as absurd by Western academia, just not as well researched as boolean logic. Points of entry may include "glass bead game" quarters of semiotics, and Western classical investigations into just why Chinese Abacuses are so efficient. Cheers, -- Kindest Regards, Sean B.
