[MD] The Dynamics of Value

Ham, Mark, John,

guys, I'm kindof tired at the moment so I am not very anxious about
starting a new conversation.

I just wanted to say, Ham, that I think this was by far the clearest
explanation I have seen you give of essentialism.  Since I am not
looking to get into it at the moment, let me just comment in re:

Ham, I would answer 'yes, I think so', but tell you that I would
mentally replace 'essence' with 'existent-enough' (in your
transcendent-ish way) whenever I read it.

I'll probably be watching.
if any of you ever really want me to jump in, just ask.
of course I'll feel free to jump in when I please too.
Tim
