JA: JP responds, er, cogitates:

I was trying to strike a middle ground
between S & R, to wit, sign & relation.

JP: Cogitating, eh  -- you're too kind!  I think that what you say
    below is (on the whole;) a helpful perspective and good advice.
    Really -- kidding aside --  good advice.  And so's that peaceful 
    easy feeling.  Not everything can be resolved --

The application to the problem of semiotic grounding
is to turn the tables on the puzzle and ask instead:
How do objects, signs, interpretants differentially
co-evolve from their primordial indistinctness?
To give it a catchy name, I guess I'll call it
the "semiotic take-off problem" (STOP).

I'm still working on it ...

In the mean time here's a primer
that I wrote on the subject of
relational reducibilities:
