Information Needs Coders and De-Coders

When a message is composed, it involves the coding of its mental content, but the message itself is not concerned about whether the contents are important or unimportant, valuable, useful, or meaningless. Only the recipient can evaluate the message after decoding it.

Hans-Joachim Flechtner (cyberneticist), cited by Werner Gitt, In The Beginning Was Information, pg.47
