Hi Isabelle,

Contact Ben, and ask him about creating a new discussion.

I consider your comments the most thoughtful I have received so far. In addition to your supporting arguments for the proposition, I will emphasize: ADThe "advance" has to do specifically with the principles of "non-identity, non-allness, non-elementalism, and consciousness of abstracting" as modifiers of our thinking. I noticed, and agree with your "dating". I did not add a date since I presently do not see how one can go beyond the principles mentioned since any 'new' proposition would corroborate these principles. Then again in terms of "infinite valued maximum probability", and rigour, who knows what might emerge?

Sorry I could not view "Henri". My computer (or me) did not seem up to it. (I am responding here because the video piece covered the e-mail and pass word request that would allow me to comment in the usual way.) I would be pleased to read your article before you send it Bill. Milton

Hi Milton,
Shall I start a new disussion on "Teaching GS in a psychiatric hospital" ? I have made a draft gathering your questions and my two big posts on the subject, but prefer to ask you before posting it. If yes, those posts should be deleted in "Intoduce yourself", but I cannot do it (or if I can, I do not know how to do it).

I agree to submit our exchange to "Etc", it's very kind of you to propose it. I may correct it, add more info, and submit the draft to you before, if you are OK.

Welcome IsabelleAB. Glad to 'know' you enjoyed the ETC: issue, and I expect you will find future issues correspondingly interesting. I hope you maintain your interest in, and applications of g.s. If there are questions you have about the goals, principles, and ways to apply general semantics, Please share.
