Ben, list - at the moment, I'm standing by my view that evolution, by which I do mean agapastic, which is akin to the inclusion of Mind, cannot function within pure randomness. I think that the confusion could be between the meaning of randomness and chance. Aristotle, in 'Physics' [Book

Gary R., List: Thanks for sharing your additional thoughts. The reason why you only have a vague notion of my "logic of ingenuity" is because it is still a vague concept! I have continued reading various relevant articles by Campos and others, and just started Moore's volume of Peirce's own

Ben, Edwina, Jon, List, Thank you for your comments which I'll try to respond to more specifically and fully in future posts. There's in fact much that I'd like to say at this point in the discussion, but pressed for time (lots to do before a Winter storm descends on NYC), I'll just make a few
