[Vision2020] Sure signs of a feminist

I'll tell you what, Ed: I'll admit my errors in grammar if you admit your errors in reasoning. Deal?

Hey Joe,

Seriously, logic was the easiest, and most fun, class--hands down--that I took in college--perhaps because it was a beginning class? I took the class online, spent about 1/2 an hour a week on coursework, and passed with a perfect score. It was through BBCC, WA online. Anyway, the subject continues to fascinate me, and I could seriously use a little boning up before I take the LSAT. I appreciate your kind offer, though--and would graciously accept if I lived closer to Pullman. Good thing the proper use of logic isn't premised on perfect grammar? or is it? I was going to tear apart your last two sentences...but why?

Have a great day,

--Ed

  How is Tom's example an "absurd interpretation" of your generalization? Do you know what a generalization is? Do you know what a counterexample to a generalization is? Wouldn't it be better to realize that your generalization was absurd, given Tom's counterexample?

  I'm teaching a logic class at WSU this summer. I'll let you sit in the class, free of charge! I think it would be in the universities best interest to do so.

    Sure signs of a feminist

     

    1) Signs her name in lowercase

    2) Uses an initial only when signing her name

     

     

    Note: many other clues exist, and are readily available to the sentient
