Re: [jboske] KS Kinds

SCHEME C            sumti                  selbri
Instance            LE se ka broda         xe ka broda
Full Manifestation  ma'u ve ka broda       ve ka broda

Kind                ma'u xe ka broda       se ka broda

Very interesting, but I don't think it can work.

{LE-Kind broda} should be a possible term to use in
any slot that will take {LE-Instance broda}. If something
means "... is an instance of", then I want to be able to
talk of Mr Instance, and say "Mr Instance is an instance
of ...". So I think distinguishing intensional from
extensional reference cannot be a job for a selbri.
