Filosofen Ludwig Wittgenstein sa at vi har det litt for travelt med å setje namn på ting. Først skulle vi undersøkje tingen grundig og beskrive han, - så kan vi etter kvart finne eit namn som er høveleg. I dette tilfelle er Naustvegen eit namn som høver, for nausta er ikkje langt unna, og det var fleire av dei før i tida.

Det er sikkert mange vegar og gater kringom i Noreg som heiter Naustvegen. Denne naustvegen følgjer fjøra nedst på Rotset i Volda og går frå Scana Volda (tidlegare Volda Mek.) og innover til Garvarbuda (museum).

Naustvegen = Boathose Road. The philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein insisted we used to be too quick when naming things. He argued that we first should investigate and make descriptions, and after some time we might find the right name(s). I can assure you, in the present case you can trust that investigations have been made. Along this road there still are boathouses, and it used to be lots more of them.

Today, 3th december 06, I received a mail from Rowena, a friend on the net. I feel it is based in real serendipity, and most gratefully I am happy to present her mail here:

quoting from "Wittgenstein Flies a Kite"  (Susan G. Sterrett)

 >>On December the 17th, in the year Ludwig Wittgenstein was born (1889)
and in the city in wich he lived (Vienna), Brahms recorded himself
playing the piano. the recording was made on a wax cylinder in the
apartment of his friend Dr Fellinger. Though extremely fragile, the
recording has been preserved. It was transferred from a wax cylinder to
a grammophone disc in 1953 and it is now available as an MP3 file on the
Internet.<<
