Of course.<br>
<br>
One of the problems with language is that it's quite possible to make up <br>
combinations of words that are literally meaningless or <br>
self-contradictory. It's just that some, on the surface, seem to be <br>
reasonable and meaningful, until you dig down a bit and actually think <br>
about them.<br>
