Ah. Somebody wrote something about it.
Bertrand Russell, "Vagueness", Australian Journal of Philosophy, 1,
1923.
Max Black, "Vagueness, an exercise in logical analysis", Philosophy of
Science, 4, 1937.
As far as I remember vagueness in legal arguments is a very
interesting subject
(lots of books too).
