lol. you know why i was worried???
it was the infinity thing...
but a sentance can't be infinitely long because my primary teacher told me that every sentance has to have a full stop ;-pbut...
'i have one kumquats'
'i have two kumquats'
'i have three kumquats...'
etc
there is an infinite number of meaningfully different sentances / thoughts just there ;-)wow...
infinity from a finite brain...
infinity from a fixed stock of words and a fixed number of rules for combining words into gramatically correct sentances...i do wonder...
whether the same just might be the case for babble rules...
at some level of description or other ;-)
