Additional information

Most of the work on this paper was done while I was a Visiting Fellow at Princeton University. Versions were read to some colleagues at Princeton, and at the philosophy of language conference in Tallahassee, Florida, in 1980, and to my graduate seminar at Indiana University in 1981. I thank Saul Kripke, especially, for comments.
