Target domain: Hofstadterian microworlds

Reading through your old tag posts can make you think of things you meant not to forget.

Lest I forget this, though: one of the motivating principles for this pseudocode stuff is that I wanted a reasonable way to express the Lexicon for Magnifi*. So, literally, while I was mentioning them metaphorically back in November, Hofstadterian microworlds really are a target domain. More precisely, I suppose, the Lexicon for expressing them is a target domain. Getting that to mean actual fluid concepts... that will be a big project.
