There Can not be a Positive Existance Without a Positive Purpose

oh man. i hope you get to feeling better soon.

pobrecita mi hita.

Thanks Alice! It's fun, I admit. I keep HOPING I'll actually learn something from Mish, tho, and it hasn't happened yet... ::sigh::

Aww so modest. I think you learned plenty.

1. You can make matter out of energy as you can make energy out of matter (Since both are part of the same equation)
2. You can't make something out of nothing
3. I was disproving and invalid statement of someone else and you stepped in to make sure that I know that the statement is invalid

I'm bed-ridden with this darn virus that's going around. Three weeks with bronchitis and no sign of it getting better. First weekend I've forced myself to stay home/not work, tho, so I'm hoping my immune system will rally to the front... the troops are getting pretty desperate...

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you get well soon Indi

oh. well, i wish you a fast recovery. i hope you get well soon

let us know how you are doing!

[alice]

hmm, i would wish you a fast recovery, too. but once you're well, you'll just go back to work and won't have the time for this anymore. who's going to entertain us and keep mish busy?

Use of Venn diagrams in basic logic is one of the most fundamental ways to break down an argument. Very simple and effective. You should read more about this if you are interested in strengthening your argument skills.

Indi, do you have any good links to Venn diagrams? I think it's something worth reading up on

Venn Diagrams????

what could you POSSIBLY be debating on, that required the use of a Venn Diagram to support one point or another???

lol.

anybody watch ali g?




here is an example of how a Ven Diagriam can prove useful:


imagine someone creating a product, like a 'glove'. HOWEVER, not 'any' type of Glove, but a specific kind that you wear when you eat ice cream from a cone...

...the glove is used, to prevent melted ice cream dripping all over your fingers......


(stick with me here).............



So, if i wanted to market this idea, i'd create a Venn Diagram....



One circle represents EVERYONE that likes ice-cream...
The Second circle, represents people with hands...




Now, the area were BOTH circles overlap, is our TARGET consumer...




and that, is a Venn Diagram...

[alice]

damn, i missed da ali g show with da venn diagrams!

[Mish]

Hehe, I don't think I've seen that one RK

Has anyone ever tried to use a Johnston Diagram of six sets???

It looks like this:

And thanks all, for the well-wishes. Am off to bed early...

INDI. This is NOT MY statement. The statement is made by OV!!!

I know it's invalid and that's what I was trying to prove to him. Are you arguing with OV or are you arguing with me???

Indi. You just LOVE arguing with me don't you

P.S. Well you found a good way of disproving him I'll give you that

Ooops. Missed this. Well, then.

MISH, I did not propose any argument at any point in this. You were arguing with OV. I told you your argument could be better.

You ASKED me to explain why your post was a logical fallacy.

Huh? The quote you posted is all one statement

How can you say it's a logical fallacy? IF you believe that everyone else is stupider than you then it means that you know more than everyone else combined, which means that you know more than 6 billion people. Where is the fallacy in this logic Indi? Please show

And so I did, as requested.

Thanks Indi

I love that Quote from Chris Rock on how people should not box themselves in some ideological concept like Conservative or Liberal.

Look at me.

Crime, I'm Conservative

Prostitution, I'm Liberal

[RSK]

i took one of those online tests to see if i'm more conservative or liberal...

...i thought i was (and wanted to be) liberal, but according to the online test, i'm conservative
