- Nov 6, 2005I'm a biologist. I'm interested in how the human brain makes human
language behavior possible. I think Wittgenstein made an important
discovery by constructing the Tractatus and then realizing the
limitations of that approach. My interest in his later philosophy is
described here:

I'm interested in the idea that we should be able to create man-made
devices that can display human-like language behavior. I hope to
continue exploring this idea in this discussion group and at the
language wiki:
