categories. I have made my mKR language dependent on Peirce's 
[and Rand's] categories.   I did that because "a different syntax for 
different categories" philosophy makes it easier to express knowledge in 
mKR. For anyone who  prefers the "one syntax 
for all categories" philosophy of RDF, by all means use RDF (or a sublanguage of 
mKR). Not wanting to drop context, my "2. group 3" 
propositions include the philosophy that propositions are 
created by humans.
