Three hours after posting the bit below on Korzybski and E-Prime, I suddenly found it amusing that given everything going on in my life I should now have an interest in General Semantics. As if I don’t have enough other intellectual hobbies…. I think this is one I can let go, but I’m still going to try to avoid using is, am, are, was, were, be, being, and been, just for the heck of it.
