Dear Christoph
I am not sure what you mean. In my understanding the important dynamics in
Peirce’s pragmaticist semiotics is that symbols grow and create habits in a web
of signs in nature as well as in culture viewing the central
bolic nature that through evolution and
history develops reasoning in many interlocking dimension.

Dear Bruno,
You talk about "some non mechanical super-entities (which exist also in the
arithmetical reality)".
This way of reasoning throws us into the realm of the philosophy of
mathematics, in which you clearly pursue a neo-platonism in the traces of

Dear Mark,

Consider the two statements:
1. Information is impossible without a physical carrier.
2. Information is impossible without the influence of that which does not exist.
There is significant truth in both statements.
