JS: That ambiguity is not "inherent" in NLs,
but it is the result of using NLs by an open-ended community of
people with different backgrounds, needs, interests, and goals. (01)
FK This fact is represneetd in connections called relations - other tah
Boolean,
or algeraic.
So the real problem is to find a common denominator for making domain
ontologies
interoperable. The job has to be started from top down, provided that the
conceptualisation is correct. Looking at SUMO and the Italian profesors slides
I
maintain that the model is bleeding. (02)
JS: I do not believe that a broad-coverage detailed ontology of everything is
possible or desirable.
FK You need not have to have a broad-coverage detailed ontolopgy of eevrything
-
if you do not stick to the way your semantic primitives, i.e the concept of
objects, properties and relations are used to make up a model with non semantic
primitives (including events, situations etc.!!). Among other things it is not
clear for a great many people that there are three different variables that all
have independent lives to be synchronised and regularly updated, namely the
objects themselves, the names of such objects (the sign, token, denotator
paradgims) and teh concepts of objects that are in the mind of the poeple -
naturally all different. So what you have in addition to those three is the
name
of the concepts and the properties of the objects that are referred to by that
name (sign) and by that concept. Unless you do not have a system or model to
align your different concpets in your different frame of mind through a common
notation for the same objects (identity) through the use of the same wording
and
the same phsical object reference (timespace) also tied together, you suck (03)

"our attention becomes structured by external demands. In more intimate
encounters, the level of both challenges and skills can grow very high. Thus,
interactions have many of the characteristics of flow activities, and they
certainly require the orderly investment of mental energy. The strong effects
of (04)
companionship on the quality of experience suggest that investing energy in
relationships is a good way to improve life." Mihály
