Full Idea
Putnam argues that theory does not correspond to reality, because there are myriad correspondences possible, and we cannot single out "the" relation of correspondence.
Gist of Idea
The correspondence theory is wrong, because there is no one correspondence between reality and fact

A Reaction
This obviously depends on views about reference and meaning. I don't see the problem in simple cases, which is all the correspondence theory needs. Complex cases, like chemistry, may well have ambiguities, but so what?
