Yes. It's always seemed to me to be self-evident that it is, but the precise relationship between the two is clearly enormously complex and non-trivial.

Yes. I read Chomsky so long ago that I scarcely remember it. Reading Pinker started to bring me back up to speed. But cognition and the nature of consciousness (all related topics) interests me hugely.
