Darron,
I think you are missing what Tom is doing. He's playing a literally
interpreted semantics 'game'. Words do nothing more than cause sonic ripples.
Actions have effect. Words may cause someone to make a decision to take an
action. The words themselves, being passive and incapable of physical action,
do nothing in and of themselves.
