Now I won't claim this one as any rare gem of common sense,
it's just that I found myself uttering what sounded like a
conventional idiom that I had no doubt picked up at school
somewhere, but when I paused to reflect on the actual form
of words that I had so unwittingly used, it struck me as a
thing newly strange and oddly unfamiliar, as though I were
hearing it for the very first time.  What in the world can
it mean to ask how realities impact on our representations?
