Hi Bruno Marchal I seem to have been using words sloppily. You can't get away with that with a mathematician :-)
Let me try again. The phenomenol is what "appears" to be out there. And yes, the experience of it is internal. And you said: "I am OK with this, but no need of a black post in comp. We need "just" to relate God-arithmetical-truth, and the machine beliefs. (Bp & p). That works!" I was thinking of Secondness as that black box. With Firstness as the input signal and Thirdness as the output signal. Then you have a typical linear system (if that's the right word). I was suggesting that the box be the convolution function, as in systems theory.

I am OK with this, but no need of a black post in comp. We need "just" to relate God-arithmetical-truth, and the machine beliefs. (Bp & p). That works!
