We aren't talking high school year book here. This is more
complicated. You want to get more deeply into which phrases I quoted from
Berger
are "either attempts to reword a triviality in order to make it seem
profound,
or attempts to sell flatly bogus notions." or do you want to go talk to
Miller? You have been facile. I'm no admirer of "techno-material practices"
but the rest of it seems a necessary repetition of terms to describe what
he was going to discuss if you mean the systems/convention/practices
sequence. I also thought it was an unusually clear description of Peirce.
