		<description><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;I can agree that appeal to authority sucks, but I hope and expect that you&#039;ll agree that sometimes that sucky sort of argument is the best to follow, simply as a result of our limitations.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Your point about words such as &lt;q&gt;really&lt;/q&gt; is well taken. For this and for other reasons, one ought to question &lt;em&gt;any&lt;/em&gt; use &#8212; including one&#039;s own &#8212; of terms that seem to distinguish a &lt;em&gt;true&lt;/em&gt; &lt;var&gt;X&lt;/var&gt; from an &lt;var&gt;X&lt;/var&gt;. (I fret about this issue in my own writing.)&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I see patent claims (&lt;q&gt;patented&lt;/q&gt;, &lt;q&gt;patent pending&lt;/q&gt;, &lt;q&gt;patent applied for&lt;/q&gt;) used as selling points, so I guess that they must have some positive effect, but I&#039;d probably laugh if someone tried to use one with me.  Under &lt;abbr title=&quot;United States&quot;&gt;US&lt;/abbr&gt; law, an invention must bring a practical benefit in order to be subject to patenting, but the judgment on that score is rendered by bureaucrats and by judges. The patent might apply to an aspect of production that brings practical benefit to the producer at the cost of benefit to the consumer.  And there is only a primitive accounting for marginal costs; perhaps the consumer reaps new benefits, but the new costs may be even greater.&lt;/p&gt;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Appeal to authority sucks.

Words like &quot;really&quot; and &quot;true&quot; are used by perverters all the time. Religion has a long tradition in esoteric writing, where messages are obfuscated and encoded so that inner circles are expected to extract the &lt;em&gt;real&lt;/em&gt; meaning of some remark that&#039;s too dangerous to let the unwashed masses recognize. So people are trained to &lt;em&gt;look&lt;/em&gt; for this.

These words are also used by marketers to insinuate superiority. Ah, yes, other companies claim to Froznicate your car, but only FroCo 9000 uses our patented(*) TrueFro process for a real Frozz that will leave you satisfied.


(*) another authoritative word. When you think of it, the original inventor of a technological process sure deserves credit, but often it&#039;s latter improvements that may have been made by others that make the original invention affordable, dependable, or safe. This is not to say we have to buy imitations, but to point out that patents are not a base for consumer decision.]]></description>
