English is just the gel that the knowledge is embedded in. Sorting out that format is bang for the buck. And it is just symbology as math is symbology, or representation. > The domain of mathematics is closed but can be extended by adding more > and > more definitions and axioms which are very compact.

It's a representation of (some other wierd physics stuff that I won't bring up). I think I can say that, that math is just an instantiation of something other. Unless the actual math symbology is the math and not what it represents. Either way, all will be represented in binary, for software or an electronics based AGI. How can you get away from the coupling of math and software? Unless there is some REAL special sauce like some analog based hyperbrid. Loosemore would say that the coupling breaks somehow at complexity regions. And I think that the representation of reality has to include those.
