I 106f
Demonstrative way of givenness/Peacocke: here, now, this is also non-linguistically possible.
>Demonstratives
, >Index words, >Way of givenness.
Demonstraviely: "Today",

I 118
Summary/Peacocke: what is determinative of a given demonstrative type, is the pattern of evidence or prior conditions so that judgments that contain tokens of this type, must be sensitive for it.
The constitutive role that is associated with this type, must capture this complex pattern of evidential sensitivity.
>Evidence, >Type/Token, >Roles, >Conceptual Role, >Causal Role.
