If dolphin mathematicians don't publish, they will perish. I don't believe words are necessary to all knowledge. There is plenty of evidence that the brain stores images that have nothing to do with words. Music is another body of knowledge created by humans without words. Mathematics and physics are far beyond the our little world of words, so that concepts, objects, particles and waves are created and manipulated initially by humans without words. It is only when it is necessary to teach the ignorant that memorable labels like "quark", "blackhole". "tensor" become necessary. Indeed, the ambiguity of words conceals more knowledge than it reveals. Does anyone imagine that Superstring theory has anything with strings?
