            An addendum I would like to make to my comments on
    accidence and inadvertance is that such states can only be
    distinguished given the existence of intentionality, with which they
    can be contrasted. Sich distinctions cannot arise in the animal
    world. Similarly, meaninglessness can only co-exist definitionally
    with meaning, as they are mutually grounding correlative opposite
    terms.
