I read this the other day; it's a fantastic overview of Peirce's thought. Didn't realize firstness, secondness, and thirdness were modelled after index, icon, and symbol. That was very helpful.
I liked the article too. I had never heard of Peirce until I watched the Bryan Magee interview on American pragmatists. @jamalrob linked to the Magee interview series last week.
Another serious Peirce fan here! I just joined today. I refer to myself as a 'synechism scholar'. I hope we can have some great discussions! Search for my avatar name with quotations around it to find out what I'm doing out there in cyberland. Cheers! Catherine

According to Magee, it’s pronounced “Purse.”
