Sung, List,
On 2nd or 3rd thought I think you are correct in saying that
there is no correlation between D and R if we are looking at
just those two factors. What I think I was thinking is that
there is a correlation if we condition everything on getting
a particular outcome.

"Reductionism would be the case for a theory that genes determine behavior, but
I said the opposite, that behavior (instincts) works toward preserving a gene
type."
Here is how I believe a strict Pragmatist would re-state that relationship:
Genes are memorialized behavior, so

1) Edwina:Instincts work only toward the perpetuation of their gene type? Ah,
a reductionist view - and how does the gene harm the species? Examples of both
privileging the gene and harming the species?

Michael Shapiro and I attended the first of the lectures in the seminar
series which Fernando Zalamea is giving at Pratt in New York City. For now
I'll only say that this seminar will, I believe, prove to be a substantial
gift to practitioners and students of mathematics, philosophy,

Sung,
Thanks for those thoughts, which will take me a while to work through.
I'm sure I must be wrong about something somewhere but I won't be able
to tell what configuration or sample space is relevant to the problem
at hand until I get a good description of what exactly that problem is.

A bit envious am I. Wish I could have attended.
I waded through a substantial portion of his book:
Peirce’s Logic of Continuity: A Mathematical and Conceptual Approach (Docent,
2012)
several months ago.
Very innovative mind and mathematics. Definitely not in the mainstream and

Jerry, List,
Yes, I feel very fortunate to be able to attend at least some of these
lectures in the Zalamea seminar series. I was unable to attend this
evening's lecture because of a prior commitment, but I'll looking forward
to attending next week's lectures

Hi,
There should be the negative sign in front of "Sum" in Equations
(091915-1), (091915-2), and (091915-3), which will not affect the content
of this post: i.e., Equations (091915-4) through (091915-8) still hold.
Sorry for the omission.
