 ... I think I have figured out the best way to describe language. It's a set 
of cue cards. Imagine a set of complicated cue cards. You are shown a card, and 
it cues your brain into certain functions and processes. We play the game of 
"cue cards" when we communicate.  The deck is not stagnant, of course, 
because new cues can be created out of existing ones. We learn the cues, and we 
learn the play for forming cues.
