Edwina, List: I guess I am confused about your comment stating that you are confused by my comment! Perhaps my difficulty stems from the different (but related) notions of "mode" and "modal" in this context--Firstness/Secondness/Thirdness, Possible/Actual/Necessitant, Feeling/Action/Thought. If Ii=Possible, Id=Actual, and If=Necessitant, then what are the three divisions of each? My guess, following Short, was Feeling/Action/Thought, which seems pretty consistent with L463 for Ii and EP2:489-490 for Id and If. But if Ii=Possible=Feeling, Id=Actual=Action, and If=Necessitant=Thought, then what are the three divisions of each? How can Ii itself be a Possible and a Feeling, yet still be classified as Categorical or Relative?
