GS Seminar
by Kenneth G. Johnson*
We learn we are creative stuff
And that five senses aren't enough
We learn to feel that which we sit on
And what to do when we are spit on.
Delay your reactions — that's the trick,
Until the cortical neurones click.
And then with every thought intact
Take careful aim and spit right back.
*The late Kenneth G. Johnson—Professor, Department of Mass Communication, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee—authored the popular General Semantics: An Outline Survey, among other works. Ken remains one of the most important of the scholar-teachers of korzybskian GS at the Institute of General Semantics after Korzybski's death.
