Given the above background, concepts, and data, what
is the proper way of seeing the relationship between
the two trios that we have drawn for Dewey's example
of inquiry, specifically, the sign-theoretic 3-tuple
and the syllogistic 3-angle?  (See Figures 6 and 7).

An immediately obvious difference between the two Figures
is that the sign triple has the "Thought of Rain" whereas
the syllogistic triple has the object state "Before Rain".
Is this a significant difference between the two diagrams?

I will think on it ...
