---
I 362
Elimination of relations and properties in favor classes of ordered pairs, open sentences, general terms - even scattered objects (in the case of colors)
Relativity: additional dimension: space-time: Point moments are absolutely different, independent of relative movement of the viewpoint.

Relations/Quine: connex: ∀x∀y[x,y ε (R U ^R)''ϑ › x(R U ^R U I)y, - ((s) (R U ^R U I): E.g. "greater or smaller or equal". (>Law of comparability, trichotomy).)
reflexive: ∀x∀y[x,y e(R n U ^R)''ϑ > xRx
irreflexive: R <≤_I,
symmetric: R = ^R

antisymmetric: R ∩ ^R ≤ I
transitive: R I R ≤ R
intransitive: R I R ≤ _R.
