Gary & All,

The aspect of infinity in semiosis is another one of those recurring
topics in Peirce studies.  I've been thinking about what I learned
from the last iteration on the Peirce List, and I think the most
important lesson would probably be that we have to get clear
about the way that people with mathematical training, as
Peirce certainly was, think about infinite structures,
the relation between finite and infinite structures,
and especially the way that infinite structures
can be generated by finite structures.

I'll see if I can work up some simple
examples to illustrate those issues.

Regards,

Jon
