Actually, he's got a good point; don't be so trigger happy with your
plonking. For one who's deep-knee in zoology, "cat" is not a housecat,
nor a tiger, nor an extinct race of cats. The point is that "cat"
doesn't exist without context, even if you seems to think so. This is
thoroughly explained by Schrodinger, which remarkably is smack on
topical. :)
