Zusammenfassung
In this dialogue the conversationists approach several topics, borderline between Philosophy and Fuzzy Logic, as the role of mathematical models for representing and managing the imprecision of natural language, the relevance of philosophical guessing, the limits of formalisms, the differences between fuzzy logic and classical logic for addressing imprecision, the role of fuzzy logic for posing new problems that Philosophy could approach and the question of why vague language is so abundant in natural language. Many other issues are the subject of the dialogue. Roughly, we can say that are originated by the different use of the terms 'vagueness' in Philosophy and 'fuzziness' in Fuzzy Logic.
