“whereas the basic architecture of life is inherently linguistic.”

Fish don’t talk, they’re alive. Come to think of it so are trees, with an abundent lack of language.

Is someone now going to mock my poor understanding of the use of the word, ‘linguistic’?

Memory Foam mattresses are not living, got it. But they exhibit a property of memory, in returning to an original shape, got it, I think.

These material things that go back to an original shape are not actively choosing this, but are merely obeying physics; got it, I think.

These things bare no resemblance to ‘Biological memory’!

Really? Biology follows different physical laws to Memory Foam? Which ones? Nobels in the offing.
