I'm only sure because I can cite an example. I fill the glass. A:The glass is full. I drink from it. B:It is empty. Both A&B are true, right. All that is changed is the time. So in a real sense the glass was in two contradictory states: both full and empty. In the wonderful world of Quantum Mechanics, this kind of stuff happens all the time - at the same time! This is but an example of the many truths, albeit a trivial example. In QM it is even weirder. There are thousands of examples where there is one truth, then something critical changes, and that truth becomes false. Usually the thing that changes is time or place. What is true in one place isn't necessarily true somewhere else.
