John, List: JFS: This is not Peirce's account. It is a JAS account that has no basis in anything that Peirce wrote.
I have provided ample evidence from Peirce's writings that on his account, a Sign has *no effect at all* on its (Dynamic) Object. If you believe that I am somehow misrepresenting him, then please make your case accordingly. JFS: Please see my response in the other thread. Ditto. JFS: To put words in Peirce's mouth violates every principle of responsible scholarship. To make bald assertions without offering any supporting argumentation violates every principle of responsible scholarship.
