Very interesting essay! His criticism of the way language is twisted to obscure meaning rather than communicate meaning reminds me of one of George Carlin's shows - where he talks about how a phrase with a very clear meaning, like "shell shock" gets twisted around into something dry and meaningless, like "post traumatic stress disorder."
