This paper was presented at the Pacific Division meeting of the American Philosophical Association, San Francisco (March 1995), and also, as part of a longer talk, at the annual meeting of the Society for Exact Philosophy, Austin (May 1994). My thanks to all who attended those sessions, especially my commentators Patricia Blanchette and Cory Juhl, as well as John Etchemendy, Christopher Menzel, and Edward Zalta. I have also benefitted from written comments from and/or helpful discussions with Gary Curtis, Charles Chihara, Kirk Ludwig, John Peoples, Stewart Shapiro, Gila Sher, and Jan Wolenski.
