John, List: I have likewise already read (and carefully studied) about a dozen articles by Tony Jappy, as well as his 2017 book, *Peirce's Twenty-Eight Sign Classes and the Philosophy of Representation*. Why assume otherwise?
I still disagree with him on destinate=final and explicit=immediate (as I maintain) vs. destinate=immediate and explicit=final (as he maintains). However, having made our cases, I agree with him that we must ultimately "leave the list members to make up their own minds." The only authority that really matters here is that of Peirce himself. I strongly urge everyone to study *his *writings in light of our different arguments, and then draw their own conclusions about *his *views based on those texts.
