Jon,
I am afraid your answer is as incomprehensible to me as was your original
remark that prompted my question.
With all the best.

Ben, list,
It is my understanding that the mathematical category is another name for
semiosis. In other words, a category is to mathematicians hat semiosis is
to semioticians.
To quote Peirce from http://www.iupui.edu/~arisbe/rsources/76DEFS/76defs.HTM:
A "sign" is anything, A, which,

"Trying to comprehend triadic relations by
means of their projective trichotomies is a project
ultimately doomed to fail."
A couple of concrete examples would help in understanding what you mean by
the doomed failure you are referring to.

Jon, List:
It appears to me that your distinction is one that needs to carefully examined.
Please cite the reference texts.
Clearly, the triadic triad is not a mathematical partition. Period. Full Stop.
End of Narrative.
Why anyone would thin so is beyond my comprehension.

Jeff D., Jon,
I'd just like to note that the questions of triads versus trichotomies
is something that we've discussed a number of times at peirce-l over the
years. For my part, I like using those words in the way that Jon and
others have recommended - 'triad' for the triadically related sign,
Hello Jon,
If you have links to the earlier discussions of the distinction between
"triadicities" and "trichotomies", I'd like to take a look. In addition to
being interested in distinction you are making, I'd like to read more about how
you are thinking about the projection of the triadic rel
