Hi Russell Standish

2p is clearly needed for perception, as explained by Peirce.

That kind of 2p can be explained in term of 3p and 1p. I don't think it is fundamental, and we should try to stay as simple as possible. I do agree with Peirce, I think, but I find the notion of 2p quite non pedagogical, and also unrelated to the use of the "you", that is the grammatical 2p, where on the contrary 1p and 3p refers easily to grammar.

But that's only my opinion, and it concerns only pedagogy,

Thanks for the definition, but how does that relate to 1p and 3p? I
cannot see anything in the definitions of firstness and thirdness that
relate to subjectivity and objectivity.

As I said before, I do not even know what 2p could be.
