I might as well say what I'm trying to argue for (tho I also need a better grasp of 'category error'). I want to argue that it is a catoegory error to say that
the irrational is perceptible. I think this means that I need to argue that irrtaionality is in a different category to rationality. This seems relatively plausible. But I'm unsure that you can say that something is in the wrong category to be said to be perceptible/non-perceptible/pre-perceptible.

Probably junk, but the authors asking whether irrationality is perceptual/etc. and more or less reasonable: got on my nerves. I use the example of aliens or psychics: neither can be said to be more or less rational than the other: they just are irrational.

well since everything is illogical until conceptulised and ordered into a wider theory then yes, there is no "logic" or "reason" in the real.

Doesn't this mean that it is impossible to say that the real in not-conscious!
