Part the task of the remaining discussion is gradually to formalize the promissory notes that are represented by these terms and stipulations and to see whether their casual comprehension can be converted into an explicit subject matter, one that depends on grasping the corresponding collection of almost wholly, if still partially, formalized conceptions.  To this I now turn.

I now find myself forced to observe a distinction, drawn between
  −
binary arithmetic values and boolean logical values, that I have
  −
spent most of my life ignoring, so bear with me if I do it a bit
  −
ineptly.  It was a bit of a shock to me that I had to acknowledge
  −
its significance after all these years, but life can be like that
  −
in so many dimensions.  My motivation for drawing this distinction
  −
is partly external, to accommodate many different ways of speaking
  −
about logical values, as employed by a wide spectrum of people from
  −
analytic philosophers to circuit engineers, and partly internal, to
  −
integrate quantitative and qualitative modes of description under an
  −
overarching sign-theoretic frame of reference.
  −
  −
It will help if I can begin with some excerpts from my dissertation,
  −
from a time when I was able to think about these questions far more
  −
carefully than I am at present.
