The link is relevant about how time is being handled for our group's
time synchronization of time globally:
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?month=1&day=24&year
=2008&hour=10&min=30&sec=0&p1=224 (01)
I am sure NIST / NASA probably have better sites for time synch. Is it
too difficult for our Ontology group to categorize time concepts and
illustrate with a couple of these sites for future machine
interpretation and understand it semantically (on cognitively to mean
the same in different math notations and algebras)? (02)
Also Sanskrit again is also a Natural Language and except for countable
exceptions its accuracy is similar to arithmetic.
Arithmetic namely 0, 1, counting and concepts of whole numbers,
fractals, prime numbers and decimal system have origin in this language
and I agree with John Sowa. (03)

Pat, (09)
I don't want to get into a lengthy argument about linguistics,
but I have a higher opinion of it than you do. (010)

The obvious way: with empirical evidence that contradicts the
predictions made by any proposed theory. (012)
NLs are much more highly organized than white noise. Therefore,
there is patterning, and linguists have discovered patterns at
all levels that have high predictive value. (013)
Chomsky made an enormous contribution to the theory of both NLs
and artificial languages by his syntactic work in the 1950s and
1960s. Since then, however, his influence has been "controversial"
to say the least. (014)
