OK,
   If you take the view that an object is tangible (example water)
and that a concept is and abstraction (example hot).

 Then how do you represent the theory of a fuzzy object. Which is an
abstraction combined with a tangibility (example hot water).

 I know in the logical world, one would just define hot water as a
fixed point between cold (0C) and boiling (100C), say 75C. But for
humans this doesnt work. Most probably stick their hands under the
hot water tap and pull it out when they decide the temperature is
uncomfortable.

  This is related to fuzzy object modeling which may be new to some
people.

  Just wondering how people would go about it.
