Was shortening because PiCo on the Discussion page (19. Interpretations) said this section is "far too long - a paragraph or so would be enough" (I don't agree) and Charles Matthews on 22 Sept did some pretty drastic pruning. So I was doing some pre-emptive shortening, removing a bit of inessential or repetitive stuff. Deleting the first sentence simply because it was introductory was probably overzealous. However, I did add Alan Bray's book and a detail from it (and from the talk he gave). I should have added some explanation for the cuts, though at the time, in view of PiCo and Charles Matthews, "Shortening" seemed enough. (78.133.74.146 (talk) 20:57, 29 September 2010 (UTC))
