Dear Francoise and Hiaroki,
I have pondered the issue of language -only transformations for a long time.
Many people report that images are a critical aspect of their cognitive/
transformational processes. I myself am language-bound, but I find it hard
to deny their reports. This is most striking among physicists, including
the well-known quotes by Einstein.
