Hello Bo,

I'd be most grateful to have someone go through this with me.

My question is not so much what does an inorganic spov represent, but 
what is the nature of a spov in the Inorganic Level.  My thinking is 
that it is primarily conceptual (although it has an emotional 
component).  As a pattern of value is conceptual, it has as its 
referent inorganic phenomena.

When I use the word conceptual, I mean a spov is primarily mental 
activity.  I do not mean a nice neat definition, or primarily 
language, but all that can be held in mind pertaining to the 
phenomena?  Am I making any sense this far?
