It is ultimately impossible to have a clearer meaning. This is exactly why we are veritably steeped in laws and will heap upon ourselves even more laws until we cannot move either to the right or to the left without confronting a literal written law. We are trying to attach a law to every dang human eventuality, and this is simply an impossibility. This is why Bill Clinton was able to cheat as he did. It is why any dang body will always be able to cheat any body else. There ain't no meaning. The meaning gap is caused by dynamics that exist both in humanity and in the physical cosmos. No one can close it, no matter what they try because it does not really exist. It is no fixed thing as far as we can tell.

If you claim meaning just floats out there in the cosmos, you will be reduced to meaninglessness to describe it, because nothing we know of in the cosmos can comment on everything anyone does and thinks. Moral determinations, for example, must consider both action and thought to have ultimate meaning; and they must possess authority to give them significance.

There is only One Meaning - Might.

(hehe - running away as you get your gun. I goin home now. So dang happy.)

In renaissance paintings, Moses is sometimes painted holding tablets with the Roman numerals I-X on them. If we want something that is 'vague', perhaps we should do something similar. Just a painting on the wall like:

I VI
II VII
III VIII
IV IX
V X
