For me the issue is words; if somebody is not capable to tell me or explain me or describe me something with the adequate array of words connected in a logical form according to grammar, etc, I do not understand nothing.

She is the being that creates and thinks; we just play the part of local processing units connected by words and concepts or even gestures to create, after indirect and direct paths, the knowledege, the arts, etc. fernando
