Hi MRB,

It is only important if we want to have a conversation about it,
otherwise not.  I could care less how snow is defined, I am going to
dress warmly regardless.

Definitions are one of the tools of the Social Level.  They provide a
common medium of exchange such as a dollar being defined as a dollar.
All definitions are circular and resort to other definitions.  Water
is wet.  Why? because things are made wet by water.  Water, wet,
water, wet, water...  have I said anything by saying that water is
wet?  Absolutely not, I have simply provided another term for water
and am simply trying to stimulate a conversational exchange.  It makes
me feel like I belong.

Cheers,
Mark
