The logic isn't the word game. The logic is All A are B, All B are C, therefore all A are C. That logic does accurtely reflect relaity. If all A are B and all B are C then all A are C. The word game is when you deliberately plug in known false premises to get a false conclusion on valid logic. I did it as an example on how of how the logic itself is not dependent on the premises being true. <Do you believe that there is no reality outside conscious perception of it? > Personally, that seems to be true. But logically, it doesn't seem to be. I suppose that comes into the "don't know" category. OK, I was just trying to interpret your "There is no externality." comment. Tim
