JA: 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?

AB: I am just reading 'Real Knowledge', by Jan Sleutels, 1994, Diss.
    It is about internalist and externalist accounts of knowledge in
    neural epistemics.  At first glance a difference between the sign
    triple and the syllogistic one is that the syllogistic one prohibits
    an internalist account whereas the sign triple diagram may or may not
    be externalistic.  (Just the Figures, without its Peircean or syllogistic
    context that is.  We know that it is externalistic.)

Auke,

I confess that I've never quite understood this talk of
externalist versus internalist perspectives, much less
its application to Peice.  Maybe this is my chance to
try again.  Could you lay out your reasoning here
in more detail for me?

Many Regards,

Jon Awbrey
