Alternatively, if he sees two rabbits, does his myopic singularizer >say that he is seeing "Mr. Rabbit" or 2 instances of Mr. Rabbit? I don't know about the cards, but if he sees two rabbits I bet he must be seeing an instance of "Mr Two Rabbits", or "Mr Rabbit Pair". I doubt very much he would not make the distinction between one and two. What he would not do maybe is consider two rabbits seen on different occasions as different objects, but on seeing a rabbit pair he would likely see one instance of "Mr Rabbit Pair", and the next day, on seeing a different rabbit pair, he might see another instance of the same "Mr Rabbit Pair". This is all sheer speculation on my part, of course. Pity no Trobriander has joined the Lojban list yet. co'o mi'e xorxes ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PERFORM CPR ON YOUR APR!
