The Natural and the Arfifactual (Life is brief, &c)

Grice was amusing hisself and others when he granted that philosophers were possibly onto something when they spoke in Greek of

semeion phusikon

'naturale signum'. Similarly when they speak of _other_ type of signs which they dub, "artificial".

"One may just as well call them 'artifactual'".

Etc.
