Note 155

3 kinds of real:
1) Projection
2) Cause
3) Thing-in-itself

Facts are not out there in the world. Facts are projections of the mind of things out there in the world to guide the mind in referring to patterns out there in the world. The correpondence is a positing of equivalence between the projection and the phenomena we observe. You cannot derive this equivalence from observation or deduction. Its not verifiable. This is not guided by derivation but by rules which are pragmatic.
