Tim,

That would be great, I attended the conference but as I hadn't read
Dialectic at the time it went above my head. Did I meet you at the
conference? My specific problem is what exactly the four(five) modes are and
how we might deploy them? I'm ok with them as steps in the dialectic
(although I do wonder if 3 and 4 might be susceptible to inversion at
times). But do they also signify analytical modes in their own right, and
why are certain things 1M categories and not, say, 2E, 3L etc.?

Thanks,
