UX\u207f: The Implications of Sampson\u2019s Proof of Universal Science; by Bjorn-Bob Weaselflinger; From Volume CLIV, Number 1, of Speculative Grammarian, May 2008 \u2014 As this author has noted elsewhere, it is not uncommon in linguistics\u2014just as in other sciences\u2014for an observation with stunning implications for the field to go largely unnoticed; a researcher will advance an analysis to deal with a highly localized, recalcitrant problem without realizing that the analysis itself is a revolutionary advance. Some advances do draw attention, but the attention itself remains localized, and the wider significance of the advance isn\u2019t recognized for quite some time. (Read by Trey Jones.)
