I found your "Laws, Facts, and Contexts" to be very stimulating. It goes well beyond your 2000 book, which I have read.
It caused me to think again about the invention of mKR. I conceived mKR as a language to represent facts, which combined McCarthy's "ist" with Devlin's "situation" in the form at context { proposition }; where context consists of space, time, view. view corresponds to McCarthy's context. space,time correspond to aspects of Devlin's situations. space,time are necessary to describe action/events which describe change.
Modal concepts correspond to human mental actions. When a fact involves a human subject and one of these "kaction" concepts think, know, believe, want, intend, feel say, ask the object of the kaction is automatically recorded in a new context with view = kaction_subject
