Sit down with someone. Now, hear a song in your head. Then tap out the song on the table--tap out the rhythm. See if the other person can guess the song in your head. Chances are they can't, because they don't have enough context. The tapper is cursed with too much knowledge. The listener with not enough. Thank you for continuing to write such great posts. - Tim Dave -

They might be only words but so are prostitute, internet, Prozac, fear, lorry, God, punishment, lick, fear, Gloucester, silly, road, fear, please, anguish, fear, but look at the trouble these words have caused. Only one thing is for certain with words and that is that Words... But thank you for your apology anyway. It is accepted. John.
