Jerry Chandler - calm down. You are evading the issue, which is, that you claimed that 'many, if not most, biosemioticians are nominalists.' I question this claim, since biosemiotics is based around the semiosis of Peirce - which rejects nominalism.
So I ask yet again, what's your evidence for your claim? Edwina
