      all can learn... so please, let us go ahead. And let us see how
      the discussion self-organizes. Recently a lovable French quotation
      came to my view: "On ne règne sur les âmes que par le calme."
      Personally I am very interested in your argumentative strategy in

        Your comments on language... Of course, a newcomer (sort of)
        should know and accept the community's explicit and implicit
        rules. Still, I respectfully disagree. Cybernetics and
        information theory opened a new world using a new vocabulary;.
        At the same time, physics is based on concepts such as mass,
        force, energy, velocity, etc., and the new fields of the ninety
        forties introduced concepts such as feedback, control,
        communication, information, code, etc. We also have systems
        theory.  Simple systems transform input into output., while
        complex systems characterized by circular causality use feedback
        loops. I might be wrong, but I don't see why chemical systems
        cannot process or even create information. Autocatalysis in
        chemical kinetics implements positive feedback, and as you know
        much better than I do, it is an elementary building block in
        evolution.</div>

      <div style="line-break:after-white-space">Peter, List:
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>This discussion is unfolding rather strangely from the
          perspective of 3 rd Order Biocybernetics as well as 2 nd Order
          cybernetics.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>Peter, it would be very helpful to explicitly express the
          mathematical foundations that you are alluding to in the
          overlapping semiologies of cyclic processes.  In particular,
          it is unclear to me what, when, and where the termini are
          interacting in the looping processes.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>Secondly, FIS traditional usage of language is referenced
          to engineering physics.  In general, participants use concepts
          “baked into” physical terms and concepts and philosophical
          history (e.g. entropy).  Any usage of either chemical or
          biochemical semiology is a priori rejected as irrelevant to
          information theory.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>Thirdly, an obscure question related to AI.  What are your
          views on modal logic with respect to your philosophy of
          cybernetics? More precisely, do these circumscriptions of
          (natural?) processes admit the usage of double negations? </div>

                      <div dir="auto">Years flow by, and we keep
                        discussing the same basic question of how our
                        concepts are related, and how the relationships
                        among our concepts picture the relationships we
                        assume to be present in Nature. </div>
                      <div dir="auto"><br>
                      </div>
                      <div dir="auto">The improvement in the discussion
                        since 1995 is, in my eyes, that we can now name
                        in detail what our problems are. We have found
                        the relations among natural numbers which are
                        depicting an interdependent interaction among
                        the symbols as such. Whether we use the natural
                        numbers as a kind of Laws Carved In Stone, as
                        Nature certainly seems to do, is our decision.
                        Pythagoras is heavily behind the idea. </div>

                        great paradigm change is overdue.</div>

                        (et nos in illis) should be accepted as
                        fundamental rules for our physiology, neurology.
                        (breath, eat, sleep are periodic - circular). It
                        looks like a clever idea to embed our psychology
                        in the factual limits - constraits - structure
                        that physiology and neurology build. If a fish
                        has a philosophy, according to which it uses
                        legs and a tail to hunt on treetops, that fish
                        gives too much credence to its reasoning and not
