| Not trying to start a nit picky argument, but
| I had always thought that real semantics are
| defined by how a term is used and what it is
| linked to in a physical world (which of course
| can be captured and expressed in an ontology).
| Otherwise any ontology is just a huge circular
| reference (like the English dictionary when
| void of any grounding.
|
| How can one define and convey the true meaning of spicy food,
| heat, pain, etc. without the corresponding grounding experience?
