OK, so given that there is a level of existence that is prior to 
symbolic articulation -- the imaginary, a pre or non linguistic 
mental (or emotional) state, the semiotic, etc -- its being would have 
to remain a mere postulate and its condition unascertainable as 
long as it is prior to articulation. However, does not the mere 
naming, or even negation, of such a state imply its existence, even if only in 
discourse? (What else is there?)

Best etc etc in a white wine sauce,
Torgeir Fjeld
