"As noted earlier, part of the confusion may come from interchanging
the concept of communication with information. Should the title
include the term communication?"
Good thoughts Jerry. I would also like to see some examination of the
essential notion of "information". I am not sure how to phrase this, but it
seems to me that it packs a number of entirely different categories of
concepts. We might start with Pedro now classic three-fold division, and
see what else might be unpacked. For instance S�ren's work on semiotics may
lead to something quite different than the Shannon notion, to the point that
we need different words completely, and different theoretical constructions.
Best to all--Allan
