Dear list: Then for what reason is CP if it is simply an "arbitrarily jumbled topical arrangement of the Collected Papers"? To arrange papers with solely that purpose appears silly to me. Perhaps something is being missed or ignored. For example, what if our purpose is to find a resolution to a

Dear Clark, list: Well, perhaps it can happen faster if they get some more funding as Peirce's popularity and awareness of his contribution grows. Best, Jerry Rhee On Tue, Oct 25, 2016 at 9:11 PM, CLARK GOBLE wrote: > > On Oct 25, 2016, at 2:38 PM, Jerry Rhee

Clark, List: For convenience, here is what I posted in the previous thread on Peirce's Cosmology about this passage, prompted by the similar illustration of a mark on a blackboard in an earlier lecture of the same series. Is there a plausible way to integrate the two mentions of a blackboard
