[Craig] This seems contradictory. If something is a TiT, then what it is, is not dependent of us. So a pattern cannot be a TiT. Nor is it clear that a "particular arrangements of primal stuff" is not a pattern. [Krimel] There is nothing we can point to as a TiT. If we could, it wouldn't be one. You a quite right in this; a pattern cannot be a TiT. In fact TiTs cannot be TiTs, which is the whole problem with them philosophically. They are inferred from experiences as the "real" part in the process of experience just as "we" are the "self" part inferred from the same process. All of the concepts we spin out of this process are secondary products.
