It is often the case that text or speech actually conveys very little by way of a model that can be used to understand, explain or predict.

So, here at FluffBusters, we have invented some (subjective) FluffBuster Indexes - to help us focus our attention on some of the many different meaning-carrying qualities of texts.

For example -

FluffBuster Word / Meaning Index = how many words are used on average to convey each piece of useful meaning.

FluffBuster Mappable Content Index - which rewards the bold judgmental either or identification and naming of; entities / things / principles - and relationships between things - whilst punishing the use of fudging, subtlety, sophistry and rhetorical tricks.

The rest will be made available shortly
