Dear sirs,
This short note about the divergent opinions of two imminent authors on the
Peirce list leaves me frustrated. I tried to go through the communications to

Dear Lists,
I'm happy to see that John Deely altered the subject line of his post, but
John, I wish you'd taken Natural Propositions out of it completely. And
the same goes for all the subject lines of the blizzard of posts yesterday

There are a number of debates on this topic at the moment.
1) Does 'Mind' or reasoning extend into the physico-chemical realm - as well as
the biological and socioconceptual realm? Those of us who consider that it does

Changing subject line as per John’s request - I have questions on Frederik's
chapter but I had to wait until I had a copy of the introduction first. I love

Lists,
I would like to add to what Gary F. has written that, given the high volume
of posting the seminar on *Natural Propositions* is producing, it would be
