		<description><![CDATA[Remember all those painfully boring 10th grade English discussions about what Lord of the Flies really meant? You probably didn&#8217;t care much for metaphor then and likely haven&#8217;t spent too much time thinking about it since. You should have. Metaphors could really be important. We use metaphors all the time.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been posting (infrequently) on this blog for 3 months now. Mostly I&#8217;ve been pondering problems relating to NLP and representing language in the computer. Tonight it dawned on me that I can never really even know what the challenges of NLP are until I have actually done some programming. So I downloaded a copy&#160;&#8230; <a href="http://sethdaugherty.wordpress.com/2009/05/13/time-to-start-programming/">Read&#160;more</a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=sethdaugherty.wordpress.com&amp;blog=5241757&amp;post=44&amp;subd=sethdaugherty&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Language cannot be understood solely in terms of words and letters. The brain is too complex; every piece seems to be connected to every other piece. If the mind really is a complex mesh of connections, it is hopeless to think of a &#8220;language subsystem&#8221; as an isolated group of neurons.
