Apologies to Kasper: as a fellow listee kindly bc'd me
to point out, the correct spelling is _hallelujah_.
Mea culpa.
Fred: I love your 2-circles exercise; it reminded me
of a fascinating book called _Laws of Form_ (1969?) by
G. Spencer Brown, a mathematician and student of
Bertrand Russell's who went on to become an engineer
in Virginia. Do you know it? It's pretty hard to come
by outside large university libraries, but is well
worth chasing down. The point is how he uses the
circle as the basis of distinction in all sorts of
senses.
Thanks again, guys!
Candice
