It is the most important/interesting/inspiring/creative one I attend. I am typically *not* a
meeting-goer these days - too much real work to do. But this meeting is more than worth it!!!” |

| "How do we ever
understand anything? Almost always [...] by using one or another
kind of analogy - that is by representing each new thing as though
it resembles something we already know. Whenever a new thing's
internal workings are too strange or complicated to deal with
directly. We represent whatever parts of it we can in terms of more
familiar signs. This way, we make each novelty seem similar to some
more ordinary thing." |
