Subject: [lit-ideas] Can I Have A Pain In My Tail?
In a message dated 1/23/2015 11:52:34 A.M. Eastern Standard Time,
donalmcevoyuk@xxxxxxxxxxx writes in "Re: Facing the Music": "... the dog will
have no conscious understanding that its brain is 'locating' the pain in the
tooth (when the pain is actually located in the brain rather than in the
tooth), and the dog will have no grasp of the issue of caries or its effect on
its central nervous system (for "caries" and "CNS" here involve W3 theoretical
knowledge), nor will the dog grasp in W3 terms that there is a potential
solution to its plight in the form of a veterinary dentist:- conversely, the
human understanding of toothache, where it encompasses all these things that a
dog cannot grasp, may be a W3-dependent understanding."
This reminds me of "H. P. G.," the initials of an Oxonian don, one of whose
'unpublications' ("which by far exceed the number of my publications") is, "Can
I Have A Pain In My Tail?"
I guess that if he is speaking from a personal point of view (or POV, as McEvoy
likes to acronym), he can't. But then H. P. G. would distinguish
between:
i. I have a pain in my tail.
and
ii. I seem to have a pain in my tail
(cfr. his "That British pillar box seems red to me; in fact, it _is_ red")
and proceed.
Cheers,
Speranza
