Jerry, list, JERRY: "Exactly what CSP means by "corpuscular philosophy" is a mystery to me. Was he arguing for the Boscowitz atoms derived from vortices?" No mystery to me what CSP meant with "corpuscular philosphy". - The problem with your question lies in "Exactly what..." - It (logically )

Jerry, List, I guess, that the union of units that unifies the unity is something different from a part-whole-affair, that is something that can sufficiently be depicted with a Venn-diagram. I think your saying of union of units fits better to real nature or phenomena than the

Jerry, Your discussion and references about chirality are convincing. But they go beyond issues that Peirce would have known in his day. I think that he was using issues about chirality as examples for making a stronger claim: For example, in his lecture on phenomenology, (EP2, 159), ends with

List, John: The issue of chirality is a critical issue in scientific philosophy. The logic of chirality is vastly more perplex than the simple logic of mathematics or physics because it is necessary to invoke the logic of multiple scientific symbol systems in a coherent manner such that the
