All,

I have not been subscribed to the Peirce-L list since my university  
changed my email address to fit its corporate image. I was getting  
reports regularly from my student Arnold Shepperson.

I regret to inform you that Arnold died yesterday of a heart attack. It  
was a shock to me, since I saw him shortly before his death, and he  
seemed fine, and very enthusiastic. It is a loss to me personally, but  
also, I think, to the wider world. Arnold was well on his way to giving  
a Peircean response to Arrow's paradox of social choice by rejecting  
Arrow's explicitly nominalist assumptions on ordering, using the idea of  
sequence instead, as found in Peirce.

My best to everyone.

John
