Well, I only had 10 minutes to try to pull a difficult set of
  concepts out of the context of philosophy and put it into a
  mathematical context while providing enough information to
  follow the chain, without using a whole lot of words. But the
  main point I was trying to bring up, for Omar Kusturica 's sake,
  is that it's *possible* to comprehend the 'gist' of difficult
  concepts by moving out of one realm and into another. Even if
  the analogies aren't perfect, it doesn't keep them from being
  useful, as long as one remembers its an analogy of course and
  not 'the thing itself'. smile emoticon
