    Hi Ham,

    Just one comment:

    [Ham wrote (to Platt):]
    > Yes, I understand that a person is influenced by the cultural environment, in
    the same sense as we say "clothes make the man". But that's a different
    context than the one under discussion, which is the metaphysical nature (or
    created essence) of the individual. I think you'll allow that there is more to
    the individual self than what is acquired from experience. I see the
    individual as the proprietary locus of sensible awareness, without which there
    is no experiential reality.

    [Arlo adds]
    And without experiential Quality (I'm dropping the materialistic "reality")
    there is no sensible awareness. THIS is the key to the dialectically forged
    relationship undergirding semiosis, and the meaning (in my opinion) to "Quality
    is the source of subjects and objects".
