Good morning.
The last comment by Hawg73 was interesting from the point of view of a professional logician because it contained a number of logical fallacies; that is, invalid propositional constructions and syllogistic forms, of the type so often committed by many visitors to Patriots Planet. Especially trolls.
'All wood burns,' states Hawg. 'Therefore,' he concludes, 'all that burns is wood.' This is, of course, pure bullshit. Universal affirmatives can only be partially converted: all of Alma Cogan is dead, but only some of the class of dead people are Alma Cogan. 'Oh yes,' one would think. However, Hawg does not understand this necessary limitation of the conversion of a proposition; consequently, he does not understand me, for how can a man expect to appreciate a witch (regardless of her material composition) if the simplest cloth-eared syllogism causes him to flounder?
For example, given the premise, 'all fish live underwater' and 'all mackerel are fish', Hawg will conclude, not that 'all mackerel live underwater', but that 'if he buys kippers it will not rain', or that 'bass should have their own website', or even that 'The Patriots have a chance of winning the superbowl even though they cannot seem to get out of their own way and Tom Brady has a separated shoulder.' This he calls 'using his intuition'. I call it 'crap', and it gets me very irritated because it is not logical.
Good day.
