Pragmaticism in the Normative Sciences" that I forgot to paste in at

Arnold, thanks for a long and rich respnse.
For now I'll just confine myself to resonding to your brief "coda" --
which as any conversational discourse analyst - canonically in this
case William Labov - will tell you, is when the speaker - in this
case writer AS - tries to connect the possible

theories.
Mid 20th century logicians threw the baby out with the bath water by
ignoring experience and not taking it seriously as a phenomenon (as
Peirce did). Their dismissal of it has left a hole that has been
