I just started this article, though I had forgoten to sign in when I saved it. (D'oh!) Anyway, I started it because this is a huge part of Chomsky's mark on linguistics. If anyone finds a reference to the argument without linking to this article, please create the link! Tyrell turing 21:49, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

Doesn't Chomsky now refer to this as "Plato's problem" ? You might find some useful resource here. - FrancisTyers 11:27, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
Can someone tell me why Plato's Problem links to this page? There is currently no mention at all on the main page why Plato's Problem links here... Are they one and the same? Then why is it called by both names? Some description/explanation would be nice! Alveolate 06:06, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
