    And "analogs" ARE semitoic mediations, Case. That's the point I was trying
    to make in the other thread. For "one experience" to be compared to "another
    experience", at least one of the situations has to be semiotically encoded,
    or else there would be no way to "act on" that situation once you are
    outside it.

    Thus, if the value judgement "the stove is hot but better than the snakes on
    the floor" occurs, it is because the "snake experience" as "really low
    Quality" has been semiotically encoded, and thus can be accessed for
    comparison from the perspective one has when sitting on the stove.

    Some argue, that BOTH situations have to be encoded for relationist
    valuation to occur, because such valuation mandates symbolically
    representing such experience. I tend to lean towards "at least one
    situation", without committing to "both", but the point is that semiosis
    undergirds the relational valuation process. It has to, or else how would
    one access the "low Quality analogs" of past experience? Pre-intellectual
    experience is "atemporal", that is, it is "in the moment".

    Just wondering here but at what point in this semiosis can we start talking
    about nouns and verbs?
    You know static stuff and dynamic stuff...
    And if we get around to it, are the verbs going to be undefined by
    definition?
