Jon, Uwe Wirth's essay relates to ours. I don't agree with everything he says (and have not read it carefully) but there are overlapping themes, such as an explicit account of B as "background-presupposition".
http://www.digitalpeirce.fee.unicamp.br/p-abdwir.htm Where do you suppose he came up with that or do you suppose Peirce actually talked about B in other parts of his work but simply silent with regards CP 5.189?
