What, I wonder, does he mean by 'it'? Does he mean the language (is
OWL or any other language intended to be a model of reality)? Or some
statement or collection of statements in some language? When I say
'the cat is on the mat' I, for one, am not intending to create a
model of reality. Rather, I am attempting to say something about
reality itself (this very cat).
