Pootwattle on Names

Pootwattle appears to be addressing the familiar observation that most scientists think giving something a name is akin to understanding it. Or not.



Pootwattle the Virtual Academic(TM) says:

The hermeneutic of the image invests itself in the writing of the proper-name effect.

Smedley the Virtual Critic(TM) responds:

Pootwattle's useful restatement of the relationship between the hermeneutic of the image and the writing of the proper-name effect addresses an important subject but forgets to mail it, if I may permit myself a slight witticism.
