12) The AND connector.
So, we define and describe the connectors of Logic, not by their truth tables but as a Law of Logic, much like physics is a collection of Laws, the Faraday law, the Ampere law, the Coulomb law the New Ohm's law, the law of universal gravity and other laws. We define AND connector not as a truth table of TTTF, but as a law that says in a string of ideas, statements of ideas p,q,r,s,t etc connected through AND, if one of the ideas is true, the entire string is true. Why define by laws instead of the Truth-table is evident in AND, in that a table cannot express the limiting idea that what if P AND Q are two contradictory statements. P = Earth is flat while Q = Earth is not flat. So we have P AND Q as true if we relied only on truth tables of TTTF for AND. But when we write AND as a law of logic, we state in the law that AND cannot contain two contradictory statements and we have to stop the logic work and resolve the issue of contradiction.
The truth-table of OR is riddled through with a strange truth value of a partial-truth in order for science to argue in a Deciding Experiment, which of statements P OR Q is the true statement, and the other partially true. By using truth-tables as defining the connector is just inadequate and we have to resort to a Law of AND and a Law of OR.
And the connector If --> Then is riddled full of strange things such as the U for undecided or unknown along with T for true and F for false or gibberish. So writing the definition of If-->Then as a law opens up and reveals much more about the connector then if we accepted the truth-table for If-->Then as its definition.
Laws express more details of the connectors than just plain using the truth table.
So we define connectors of true logic, not by a truth-table but by laws, same as in science, for science is defined by their universal laws, much like the laws of physics. For example the laws of electromagnetism-- Coulomb law, New Ohm's law, Faraday law, Ampere law.
The Existential quantifier is defined by law as something exists due to the available best science on the subject showing the object exists, plus, you cannot have A exists and A does not exist for that is a contradiction and Logic comes to a grinding halt to straighten-out the contradiction before continuing further.
The Not-Equal connector is defined by law as "Not" is the reversal of a statement while "Equality" is identical sameness. Keep in mind, Not is bound together with Equal and unable to be a separate concept in itself.
Example: "Plants are species that live on CO2 while animals are species that do not live on CO2."
Explanation: All plants share the sameness of living on CO2, while animals do not share a sameness with the breathing in of CO2 to live on that gas molecule. This example shows how "equal" is bound up with "not".
We now define the AND connector, not with truth-table but with a science law saying that AND connector is one of add or join two or more statements of ideas together. And the law that defines AND is that within a string of statements joined by AND that at __least one of the statements has a true value__ ascertained from science, and where all the other statements in the string can be 0-valued out right false or mere worthless chitter-chatter, ___except a contradiction___, but the overall chain of statements is thus true. If a contradiction occurs in a string of statements, then all stops and until the contradiction is excised out, does logic continue further.
That means a string of statements, p,q,r,s,t,u,v connected by AND can be true if just one of the statements is true, and the rest be worthless nonsense, chitter-chatter and outright false. However, beware, there cannot be a contradiction of say v and not-v in the string. The expression given of AND is "we do not throw the baby out in the bathe water".
If one wanted to give a truth-table of AND it would look like this.
New Logic
AND truth table
p q p AND q
T T = T
T F = T
F T = T
F F = F
And with modern day computers needing to do arithmetic Add, they have their software make addition with a truth table of TTTF.
And if we substitute T with 1 and F with 0 we see again that AND is add of arithmetic.
p q p AND q
1 1 = 2
1 0 = 1
0 1 = 1
0 0 = 0
Now the AND connector of Logic has several replacement terms in English as being "but", "yet", "also", "still", "although", "however", "moreover", "nevertheless", even the comma and semicolon are AND replacements (source: Copi on conjunction).
The AND connector of Logic. To my mind the easiest connector for it is simple add of arithmetic. In fact, we can replace the word "and" with that of "add".
However, AND does get confusing or distracting in arguments because T AND F or F AND T both result in a true overall statement, yet it contains a falsehood or gibberish.
Homework: Examine these AND connected statements and pick which is the true statement and the other a false or gibberish statement.
Note: sometimes we use other words that mean AND, such as "both" sometimes "because".
1) The Earth is flat and it rotates on an axis.
2) The Winter solstice is 21 December this year and it is the first day of Winter.
3) The Big Dipper points to the North Star, Polaris, and Polaris is in Cassiopeia constellation.
4) Higgly piggly, the cow jumped over the moon, because the Moon arrived to Earth to be a satellite only 90 million years ago.
5) The Sun has gone Red Giant and so Santa will be late for Christmas.

So here we see that the AND connector in Logic is similar to the Add operator of mathematics. But carefully notice that in a logic argument, statements using the AND connector can have falsehoods and gibberish nonsense in addition to a true and worthwhile statement.
This is often seen in the case of mathematics proofs. Where a proof is given but carries a-lot of side-show nonsense, even a falsehood here and there. And the way many mathematicians react to the nonsense or falsehoods, they eventually trim out the nonsense and throw-out the falsehoods.
But, even if they did not, the proof is still valid with or without the falsehoods and gibberish nonsense.
Now, one has to ask the question why on Earth would Logic be a systematic science of ideas and need a connector such as AND that can carry around falsehoods and gibberish nonsense in arguments of Logic?? What is the need for this transport of 0 valued falsity in arguments?? Here I look to the Scientific Method for a answer. What is the function of carrying extra baggage in a argument, some outright false, some gibberish? Well in taking baggage on a expedition, we often take more than needed, just in case. And it is this idea of utility. The AND operator is a utility operator, just in case a idea needs support, like supporting evidence. We can think of the AND carrying extra baggage as carrying extra hypotheses, where the first hypothesis is wrong so we go to a second hypothesis.
13) The OR connector.
Alright, I am up to OR connector but need a vast overhaul of OR in order to make its truth table align with mathematics arithmetic.
The Truth table representing subtraction or Remove is what the OR connector is all about. As we saw before, AND is add or join together. So Logic would need a connector of Remove or subtract.
Logic OR (exclusive)
p q p or q
____________
T T F
T F T
F T T
F F F
Math validation of correctness
p q p or q
____________
1 1 0
1 0 1
0 1 1
0 0 0
So we have 4 possibilities.
1) Remove P keeping Q
2) Remove Q keeping P
3) Subtract P from Q provided Q is equal or larger
4) Subtract Q from P provided P is equal or larger
As I write the Law of OR as connector, the Law must consider the 4 possibilities of Remove (subtract).
This is why I use Mathematics to guide me in the True Logic connectors. You see the third row above of F T then T is 0-1 = 1 is not allowed in arithmetic by the axiom that you cannot subtract more than what is available.
And this is why the Truth Tables are not the correct definition of any of the connectors but has to be a Law that states-- in statement form-- the correct definition of any of the Logic connectors.
The definition of all 6 Connectors of Logic is best served by a written statement or statements as a Law of Logic. The Truth-tables ___cannot____ properly define the 6 connectors for they leave too much out of the meaning of the 6 connectors. Written laws, like the written laws of Electromagnetism in Physics best describes the phenomenon that is being defined. Truth tables in Logic are only a shadowy glimpse of what the definition may be, but cannot adequately define Existential quantifier, Not-Equal, AND, OR, IF-->Then, Universal quantifier.
Alright, I am up to OR connector but need a vast overhaul of OR in order to make its truth table align with mathematics arithmetic.
The Truth table representing subtraction or Remove for OR.
New Logic OR (exclusive)
p q p or q
____________
T T F
T dT T
dT T T
F F F
Where the dT represents partial true value.
So, OR cannot be defined from truth table but must be defined by a statement summary, just like defining the Faraday law as--- thrust a bar magnet through a copper coil connected in circuit with a Galvanometer and watch for the reading of electric current produced by the thrusting bar magnet.
That is the OR truth table, but it does not give you information on how it is formed. For information we go to math arithmetic of subtraction which is better called Removal.
AND connector in previous chapter is addition and joining together of ideas, while OR should be the reverse of joining together but removing.

13) The OR connector of Logic
------------------------------------------------
AND or add connector was rather simple, but now we come to the OR connector which is far more complex and complicated.
OR is sometimes stated as "Either....or" another replacement is "alternatively". OR is the opposite of AND where we add, but in OR we remove, we subtract.
Physics is famous for experiments that tell us the truth of the world in Laws of physics or laws of any science. Often, a science has to decide on which of two statements is the true statement and which is wrong and discarded.
Example. The Earth is flat or, the Earth is Round.
Here we have two statements "P= The Earth is flat." With "Q= The Earth is Round" and it is the job of science to make experiments and decide which is true P or Q, whichever is true, we discard the false one.
OR as a connector does not tolerate falsehoods in deciding experiments and so its truth table is very different from AND in that it has partial truths written as dT. When you see the symbol dT, it means the statement has a fractional truth value but parts of the statement are false.
New Logic OR (exclusive)
p q p or q
____________
T T F
T dT T
dT T T
F F F
Math validation of correctness where T is valued at 1, F at 0, and dT a fraction of 1.
p q p or q
____________
1 1 0
1 1/10 1 once we discard 1/10
1/10 1 1 once we discard 1/10
0 0 0
So we have 4 possibilities.
1) Remove P keeping Q
2) Remove Q keeping P
3) Subtract P from Q provided Q is larger or the same size
4) Subtract Q from P provided P is larger or the same size
Here we have two statements "P= The Earth is flat." With "Q= The Earth is Round" and it is the job of science to make experiments and decide which is true P or Q, whichever is true, we discard the false one.
OR as a connector does not tolerate falsehoods in deciding experiments and so its truth table is very different from AND in that it has partial truths written as dT. When you see the symbol dT, it means the statement has a fractional truth value but parts of the statement are false.
New Logic OR (exclusive)

T dT T
dT T T
F F F
Examples of 2nd row and their deciding experiments.
1) Either the Sun shines 90% from Faraday Law or the Sun shines 100% from fusion of light elements forming heavier elements.
Deciding Experiment: It is found that a muon of 105MeV is inside a proton torus of hydrogen of 840MeV. Why would that be a deciding experiment?? Because a muon thrusting through a 840 windings of 1 MeV each is the Faraday law producing electrical energy.
2) Earth has earthquakes caused by the rattling and vibration of the two inner cores, or, Earth has earthquakes due to the motion of convection currents in mantle and crust.
Deciding Experiment: If Convection currents are the cause, earthquakes would not move in one direction then back up and move in the opposite direction. But if it is the vibrations of electric motors that the cores are, then the motion is forward then backward.
Examples for 3rd row and their deciding experiments.
3) Either Smilodon, the saber tooth tiger really did grow large canine teeth, or, they are walrus tusks glued on by paleontologists and museums.
Deciding Experiment:: DNA test all museum specimens of Smilodon of the jaw and of the canines, if found to be cat DNA or walrus tusk DNA.
4) Either the chemical formula for Water is H2O, or, the true chemical formula for Water is H4O.
Deciding Experiment:: Insist that lazy chemists and physicists stop their water electrolysis experiment when they check for volume of hydrogen compared to oxygen, then hop skip jump back to the lounge for cake coffee and donuts, but rather, insist they get out the micro quartz balance and actually weigh the mass of the hydrogen as compared to oxygen. What prompts AP to do this extra work, is that the Atom needs all three of muon, proton and at least one neutron to store the energy created by Faraday law as the muon thrusts through the proton torus of hydrogen. No atom can exist without some form of neutron. Chemists and physicists have been exceptionally lazy and ignorant in weighing the results of Water Electrolysis.

The message I was getting across in Water Electrolysis is that a hydrogen atom with only a proton and muon inside is not a Atom at all, but a subatomic particle. All Atoms need some form of a neutron. It does not have to be a fully grown neutron of 945MeV but a partially grown Neutron to store the electrical energy giving off by the Faraday law of muon thrusting through proton torus.

I had to modify drastically, the OR connector, to this where truth has a Range of values. Where truth T has a value of 1, and false has a value of 0, but you can have truth values between 0 and 1, and those variable values need to show up as "dT" in OR truth table.
P Q P OR Q where dT stands for a statement that has a partial truth
T T F
T dT T
dT T T
F F F
Example: P = The Sun is a star. Is a true statement with value 1. Q = The Sun is a planet. Is a false statement with value 0.
R = The Sun is a blue star. Is a statement that has a fractional truth value, for the Sun is a star but it is not a blue star. So we say the truth value of R is intermediate between 0 and 1 and give it a truth value of 0.25.
The greatest use of OR in logic is to evaluate DECIDING EXPERIMENTS of Physics. Is the Light-photon a Light Wave or as AP thinks, a Light Wire.
So in Logic we have the statement Either the Light-Photon is a Light-Wave, OR, it is a Light-Wire. From there, that argument proceeds and one of them will win, the other will lose. Both have a truth value greater than 0.
Archimedes Plutonium Jan 8, 2026, 8:15:21 PM to Plutonium Atom Universe newsgroup.
A logic textbook is the very hardest science book to write. I should know, finding out from experience, for now I start over again all 4 my of logic textbooks because of "dT".
Now some may question if the dT variable truth, part true and part false is needed in any of the other 5 connectors of Logic, other than the OR connector. And here is the beauty of modeling Logic after mathematics. In mathematics, as we substitute 1 for True and 0 for false in the connectors, the only time in which this substitution breaks apart is in the OR connector, and demanding for us to craft and create the dT variable truth value. You will notice in the next chapter on If-->Then we introduce a new parameter of U in the truth tables meaning uncertain or undefined. The U is different from T as 1, and F as 0, and dT as partial truth. The U also comes from mathematics in the knowledge that we cannot divide by 0. But that is not solved by using a dT in the If-->Then. The use of dT in OR arose because we cannot mathematically take 0 -1 = -1. The dT arose from that impossible math arithmetic of getting negative numbers. And although some will complain that 1/10 subtract 1 is still a negative number, in the Law of OR will stipulate that the subtract or removal of (1/10) - 1 is such that you remove 1/10 altogether leaving only 1. When we look at the second row instead of the third row of OR, we have 1 - 1/10 and here the subtraction is not ending up as 9/10, no, it ends up as removal of 1/10 altogether and leaving behind 1.
So in summary, the dT special variable comes into Logic only in the OR connector, only 1 of the 6 connectors.
14) The IF-->Then connector.
Archimedes Plutonium Jan 22, 2026, 2:44:18 AM to Plutonium Atom Universe newsgroup.
14) The If-->Then connector
There are 4 simple connectors of Logic, Equal-Not, AND, OR, If->Then and we talked about the truth tables of three of them. Now we turn our attention to the fourth simple connector of If-->Then. It is far more complex than Equal-Not, AND, OR. And we learned that Equal-Not is multiplication; AND is addition, and OR is subtraction. That leaves only division remaining. The If-->Then connector is also called the "implication" or the "conditional" some go so far as to call it the "material conditional" and some call it the "hypothetical". The statement between the "if" and the "then" is called the antecedent, while the following statement after the "then" is called the consequent.
I often like to think of the If-->Then connector as the "move-into" connector. A famous philosopher, Plato, dwelled on the idea of transformation of "Being into Becoming". As the "If" is existence and then the growth and change as the "then".
One of Logic's first syllogism was this. (A syllogism is a simple two line argument with a conclusion.)
All men are mortal.
Socrates was a man.
Therefore, Socrates is mortal.
That entire argument can be rewritten as a If -->Then connected statement.
If all men are mortal and Socrates is a man, then Socrates is mortal.
So far the truth table of Not-Equal (some prefer to write it as Equal-Not) had all 4 rows being true. AND had 3 rows being true. OR had 2 rows of being true. Take a guess of how many rows are true for If-->Then????
New Logic
IMPLIES (Material Conditional)
IF-->THEN truth table
MOVES INTO
T -> T = T
T -> F = F
F -> T = U probability outcome
F -> F = U probability outcome
Let us see how assigning T = 1 and F = 0, makes the If --> Then be division in arithmetic.
Let me validate that is the math operator division. I replace T with 1 and F with 0.
p q p divide into q
____________
1 divide into 1 1
1 divide into 0 0
0 divide into 1 U for unknown, uncertain, undecided and undefined
0 divide into 0 U for unknown, uncertain, undecided and undefined
We must talk about the strange two rows of U for the If-->Then.
Archimedes Plutonium Jan 24, 2026, 3:12:26 AM to Plutonium Atom Universe newsgroup.
The strange two rows of If--> Then are because a falsehood will never lead to truth in science, and furthermore, mathematics needs division divided by zero be undefined. We cannot have math be more than logic. Logic needs to reflect all the truths of mathematics and then some.
Examples of If-->Then
1) If we have drought in 2026 in my region, then the plants will wilt and stop growing.
2) If the Sun shines from Faraday law, not from fusion, then every year gets on average hotter than the last year.
3) If the Sun shines from Faraday law, then the polar ice caps will accelerate in melting.
4) If the Moon arrived near Earth only 90 million years ago, then that easily explains how dinosaurs could live on both poles of Earth as one side of Earth constantly had daytime, no night.
5) If the Moon arrived near Earth only 90 million years ago, then that explains how life came into existence in warm seas and no violent motion.
6) If the Moon was always there when Earth was there some 4.5 billion years ago, then life on Earth would not have evolved out of the seas for the conditions were not suitable.
Analysis: (1) is If T, then T. (2) is If T then T. (3) is If T then T. (4) is If T then T. (5) is If T then T. (6) is If F then U unknown.

I am rather thankful that sci.math and sci.physics from 1993-2024 had a goonclod gang of stalker failures of science and logic for it is difficult for a normal scientist to come up with muddle headed logic since we spend much of our time on only truths of science. And so I am thankful that the dumb failure Dan Christensen posted so much logical crap to sci.math and saves me a-lot of time.
Dan is a failure of math and logic and one of the reasons he fails so much is it is impossible to make clear his thoughts, no his big loud mouth gets in the way of clarity, and this is a harbinger sign for students around the world to learn--- if you are around a "loudmouth" usually means the louder the mouth, the more empty the thoughts inside and is wasting your valuable time in life.
“Primes do not exist, because the set they were borne from has no division.”
--June 29, 2020 by Dan Christensen in sci.math
What Dan was trying to say is this.
If Primes existed, then they should come from a set that is complete to division. The 10 Decimal Grid Numbers 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, ...0.9, 1.0, 1.1, ... , 9.8, 9.9, 10.0 is the smallest Grid System and has division. Divide 1 by 10 and you have 0.1. Divide 5 by 10 and you have 0.5. So of the integers in 10 Grid can we say any of them are prime???? For 5 is divisible by 10, divisible by 0.5, divisible by 2.5 and many others. The number 3 is divisible by 10 by 0.3, by 1.5, etc. So that when a stupid mathematician or logician says Primes are only divisible by themselves and the number 1, while never paying attention to the fact the fool choses a set that is undefined towards the Operation of Division in the first place. So that the concept of Prime is itself Vacuous and Meaningless.
When the true numbers of mathematics are the Decimal Grid Numbers starting with 10, then 100 then 1000, etc. There is No Concept of Prime because every number (except 0) is divisible by another number other than 1 and itself. In Decimal Grid Numbers, the concept of Prime is a bogus concept.
Dan's statement turned into a If-->Then. If Primes exist, then the set they were borne from has no valid division.
Analysis: Here we see that "because" is often a replacement for "If-->Then". If T, then F. This is an example of what If-->Then avoids at all cost, a IF--> True leading to a Then False.
Statement P= Primes on Counting Numbers do not exist because Counting Numbers are not complete to division.
That statement is the same as Q= If Primes exist on Counting Numbers, then the Counting Numbers are complete to division.
Do you remember what completeness of a set means?? If not, let me refresh you. Counting numbers are complete to multiplication because when you take any two counting number and multiply them together, you end up with another counting number.
We cannot say the same thing for division on counting numbers for example 1 divided by 2 is not a counting number but a fraction as 0.5. Completeness is defined as taking any two numbers to a operation and the operation returns you a number that is in that same set.
But Dan makes a beautiful If T then F in his next example.
Now here is a beauty blunder by Canadian Dan Christensen of a If True then False.
We know in Logic the worst you can do is make a contradiction such as this: The last and largest finite number is 1*10^604 AND 1*10^604 is not the last and largest finite number.
Analysis: that is a contradiction to have P AND not-P. But the IF-->Then connector comes close to matching the nuisance of the contradiction with its If True, then False.
Here the Canadian Dan Christensen makes such a If T then F.
Dan took 6 days to make this mindrot If T then F.
“The last and largest finite number is 10^604.”
--June 3, 2015
“0 appears to be the last and largest finite number”
--June 9, 2015
If the last and largest finite number is 1*10^604, then, 0 appears to be the last and largest finite number.
Can the student reader see how similar that is to a contradiction, or approaching a contradiction???
A contradiction is shown above, yet this if..then approaches a contradiction for it is saying 1*10^604 is the same as 0.
Analysis of Dan's If T then F: According to the truth tables of If..Then, it is false when you have If T then F.
Like I said earlier, scientists have their minds and brains dug deep into truth, swimming in truth and looking to find new truths. It is difficult for them to come up with nonsense gibberish bandied about by Dan Christensen and so we look for these failures whenever we want lists of falsehoods and fallacies for teaching examples.

If Harvard has a department of Theoretical Sewing Machines giving out PhDs then surely Jack Murtagh's PhD from Harvard in Theoretical Computer makes some sort of sense.
Analysis: If F, then F. The overall If-->Then is U for unknown as a false premiss in the "If portion" can never lead to a true conclusion for the tenuous connection. This is why I like to say that If-->Then is characterized as "move into".

Some more If-->Then statements and as homework.
My wall clock shows the phases of the Moon, and today 30 January is a Full Moon where I live in South Dakota. Also my 2026 calendar shows the Moon phases for Eastern standard time which is not far off from my going outside and observing myself.
It is a shame that when I was young, in High School, that I did not do this then, observe the Moon in its phases and learned from the observations. Oh, well, better late than never.
Homework for 1 month, write up on your observations.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1) IF the Moon on 29 January is a sliver of a crescent Moon located in the SouthWest sky where the Sun sets at that location on 29January, AND the Moon on 30 January, a day later is directly opposite in position in the NorthEast, a move of 180 degrees in the sky, in one single day, THEN, this is evidence the Earth is round and not flat.
2) IF the Moon on 29 January is a sliver of a crescent Moon located in the SouthWest sky where the Sun sets at that location on 29January, AND the Moon on 30 January, a day later is directely opposite in position in the NorthEast, a move of 180 degrees in the sky, in one single day, THEN, this is evidence the Earth is round AND the Earth rotates on its axis each 24 hours.
3) IF the Moon on 29 January is a sliver of a crescent Moon located in the SouthWest sky where the Sun sets at that location on 29January, AND the Moon on 30 January, a day later is directely opposite in position in the NorthEast, a move of 180 degrees in the sky, in one single day, THEN, this is evidence the Earth is round AND the Earth rotates on its axis each 24 hours AND the Solar System is Heliocentric not geocentric.
So in this homework assignment you are to observe the Moon in a crescent phase where the next day the Moon is in the opposite direction in the night sky and is in a full phase. And to answer those If Then hypotheticals using Logic.
In the above I have highlighted the IF-->Then but also highlighted the AND connector.

So we have observations by students at home of the actual physical moon for two weeks.
Then we have an in class demonstration where one student is the Sun holding a flashlight. Another student is the Earth that slowly steps around in a motion to make a rotation of Earth on axis. Third we have a student acting as the Moon holding a mirror that reflects Sun (flashlight) upon Earth, and this moon slowly moves around Earth.
After we watch the demonstration guided by the teacher, we assign the homework to answer.

Helping the students learning logic by picking out images in web search that are helpful.
The University of Iowa image tells us Earth must be Round and moving on an axis in order to physically provide for Moon phases.
But, does any image in a Google search of the Moon phases prove that the Solar System is Heliocentric and not Geocentric?????

So I quoted up to the Britannica image as it and several other images prove that the Solar System is Heliocentric which means the Sun is ____Relatively at Rest____ compared to Earth, Moon and the planets.
Now, in this Logic class we are going to build a Model of the Earth to argue against all those people who think that Earth must be Flat in order to not fall off of Earth into Space if Earth was round. Here the story starts with Thales of Miletus in Ancient Greek times 626- 548 BC who studied the Lodestone-- a rock that attracts iron. He also studied static electricity of rubbing amber in animal fur.
So, we are going to have students proposing a hypothesis, nay, theory of science that anticipates Newton from Thales by thousands of years ahead of Newton.
Primal Axiom of Science:: All is Atom, and Atoms are nothing but Electricity and Magnetism.
For, come to think of it, the motion of Sun, the energy of Sun, the motion of planets and Moon are all forms of electricity and magnetism.

Archimedes Plutonium Feb 1, 2026, 3:37:57 AM to Plutonium Atom Universe newsgroup.
So I see the full moon on 31January 2026 at a position NorthEast at 6PM. I wait hours later, for 3AM and see the full moon almost SouthWest where the Sunset was on 31January.
Explanation: I am on a round Earth rotating on axis in every 24 hours. As the sun set on 31Jan the moon was full in NorthEast, but as the night moves on by 3AM I am far enough in Earth's rotation by 1Feb2026 to see the full moon nearly in the SouthWest location.
The only feasible explanation for this would be that Earth is round and rotates on axis.
In Logic we learn a valuable principle called Occam's Razor. It basically says that the easiest explanation for events is often the true explanation. We could conjure up theatrics of saying Earth is flat and Sun revolves around Earth, but such theatrics cause the speed of the Sun in motion to approach the speed of light, and makes that explanation be far far fetched.
Archimedes Plutonium Feb 1, 2026, 9:09:06 PM to Plutonium Atom Universe newsgroup.
The only sensible explanation for why the Moon is a full moon, appearing NorthEast at 6PM, 7PM then appearing SouthWest at 3AM is that of the passage of nighttime, me as observer is moving counterclockwise from West to East.
Sensible becomes the same as being ___logical___.
This proves the Earth is Round, a big ball rotating on its axis.
Now there is a far easier proof the Earth is round when we see the earth eclipse the Moon we see Earth's curvature as a round ball in a Lunar eclipse. The trouble with that though, is lunar eclipses are rare compared to almost every month you see the full moon. And the curve of Earth round is rather vague, too vague for me to have confidence in the arc curve of Earth. But the moon phases are frequent and every month and unmistakable. When doing Logic, you like to have data that is clear and not vague.
In order to explain the full Moon at 6-7PM being NorthEast then a few hours later being SouthWest is easy as in Occam's Razor that the Earth is spinning on its axis in the 12 hours of nighttime shifting the Moon from NorthEast to SouthWest as the night progresses.
To explain this shift from NorthEast to SouthWest as a Flat Earth which is stationary and the Sun moving around Earth in revolution orbit, would require the Sun to approach the speed of light as well as the Moon moving at such unbelievable rapid speed yet so far away.
The only other explanation and argument that needs our attention, is how does a Round Earth, moving in Space keep people from falling off into space. And here the argument of logic will be the Lodestone, the magnets and static electricity found by Thales in Ancient Greek times.
We have to address this problem, because it needs attention. If Earth is round, what is to keep things from falling off Earth???
Actually, it is far easier to explain the force of gravity that holds all material to the surface of Earth than it is to explain the motion of Sun, planets and moons, in my humble opinion. So that the Ancient Greeks could have explained the force of gravity as a form of electromagnetism which is even more advanced than our present day physics classes teaches, for they have not yet unified the four forces of physics, showing that gravity is a EM force.
Thales and Archimedes and Eratosthenes and Aristarchus all high powered geniuses in Ancient Greek times could easily have anticipated all of Newton, yes, they could have anticipated all of Newton on gravity and then some, for Newton did not unify gravity to EM force. Probably because he, and most all modern day physicists could not see that electricity is all attract and no repel, for there is a Pauli Exclusion Principle that looks like repel but is rather instead ___ no occupation of same space___. Dull people cannot understand no occupation of the same space is far different, far far different, from repel.
--- quoting Wikipedia on Lodestone magnets---
For a general description of the mineral itself, see Magnetite.
For other uses, see Lodestone (disambiguation).
Lodestone attracting some iron nails
Lodestone in the Hall of Gems of the Smithsonian
Lodestone attracting small bits of iron
Lodestones are naturally magnetized pieces of the mineral magnetite. They are naturally occurring magnets, which can attract iron. The property of magnetism was first discovered in antiquity through lodestones. Pieces of lodestone, suspended so they could turn, were the first magnetic compasses, and their importance to early navigation is indicated by the name lodestone, which in Middle Englishmeans "course stone" or "leading stone", from the now-obsolete meaning of lode as "journey, way".
Lodestone is one of only a very few minerals that is found naturally magnetized. Magnetite is black or brownish-black with a black streak, with a metallic luster and a Mohs hardness of 5.5–6.5.
Origin
The process by which lodestone is created has long been an open question in geology. Only a small amount of the magnetite on the Earth is found magnetized as lodestone. Ordinary magnetite is attracted to a magnetic field as iron and steel are, but does not tend to become magnetized itself; it has too low a magnetic coercivity, or resistance to magnetization or demagnetization. Microscopic examination of lodestones has found them to be made of magnetite (Fe3O4) with inclusions of maghemite (cubic Fe2O3), often with impurity metal ions of titanium, aluminium, and manganese. This inhomogeneous crystalline structure gives this variety of magnetite sufficient coercivity to remain magnetized and thus be a permanent magnet.
The other question is how lodestones get magnetized. The Earth's magnetic field at 0.5 gauss is too weak to magnetize a lodestone by itself. The leading theory is that lodestones are magnetized by the strong magnetic fields surrounding lightning bolts. Magnetite is a ferrimagnetic material, so a lightning strike can align its magnetic domains and create a lodestone. This is supported by the observation that they are mostly found near the surface of the Earth, rather than buried at great depth.
History
One of the earliest known references to lodestone's magnetic properties was made by 6th century BC Greek philosopher Thales of Miletus, whom the ancient Greeks credited with discovering lodestone's attraction to iron and other lodestones. The name magnet may come from lodestones found in Magnesia, Anatolia.
--- end quoting Wikipedia on Lodestone magnets---
So, on 1Feb2026 a full Moon was seen NorthEast at 7PM, then 2Feb this full Moon was seen SouthWest at 4AM. Did it make a continuous trek across the night sky??? It was too cloudy to tell. Some clear night I should observe the Moon if it is a continuous trek from NorthEast to SouthWest.
So a lunar eclipse on average is about 2 a year is too rare to prove Earth is round. Besides, even if you see a lunar eclipse, it is hard to see a Round ball Earth on the moon and open for debate among observers. Some may swear that this is the easiest proof other than sailing around the globe or flying around the globe before that was possible.
My opinion, given lunar eclipse is rare, 2 per year, and given it is a judgement call you are seeing a curved Earth as ball, that the Moon phases which occur every month of the year is a far better logical proof of Earth is round and spinning on its axis.
I would have posted a picture of a lunar eclipse, but could not find any with a clear curved Earth.
As for the question of the trek of the Moon from 7PM to 3AM is continuous in the night sky, I ask myself the question of whether the moon lies in the same plane that the Sun and Earth form a plane called the Ecliptic.
So if the moon is in the very same plane, we would not have Full Moons as the Earth would block that phenomenon. Looking it up, I see the Moon is off of the ecliptic by 5.14 degrees. Apparently 5 degrees off the plane formed by Earth and Sun is enough off-plane so that Full Moons are commonplace.
This would mean that a continuous full moon from 7PM through 3AM treks from NorthEast to SouthWest.
The start of physics really started in Ancient times by observing star and planet and Sun motion. The vital questions of --- Is Earth Round and moving was impeded by the question, if round, how do you keep from falling off.
Both questions can be solved and answered by Ancient Greek times of Thales, Archimedes, Aristarchus and Eratosthenes, by watching the motion of the Moon in its phases and by referring to the magnetic Lodestone to keep Earth together and people not falling off.
Also, the start of Math and Logic in Ancient times with Pythagorus, Socrates, Aristotle coincided with Thales, Archimedes and physics.
15) The Universal quantifier.
The Universal quantifier invokes the image or quantity of "All" or of "Every". The universal quantifier is related to the integral of calculus as the area under the function graph, area of rectangles as cells, the dy multiply times the dx. Related to math as multiplication as the Not-Equal connector of Logic. Related to geometry as "all of space" such as volume.
So here we go back to our lesson in calculus as we follow the function such as the identity function Y= x. And relate to the Existential and Universal quantifiers. The existential is the fact that every x point exists. In the 10 Decimal Grid with integers only every number 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 exists. Each individual number exists and the derivative is such that it goes from 0 to 1 picking out a unique y-value. This is Existential quantifier. For the Universal quantifier, every integer from 0 to 10 is included in the function graph, as it moves from 0 on through all those integers to 10.
Existence goes together with Universal. Now we go back to Madame Emilie du Chatelet 1706-1749 doing a superb science experiment following the Dutch physicist Gravesande with his experimental proof that kinetic energy is mv^2, quite different from momentum as mv.
So we have Newton with his Universal Law of Gravity F=G(m_1 times m_2) / distance^2.
Gravesande sets up the experiment of dropping lead ball to fall on clay and making a depression in the clay. Of course Earth is mass_1 and the lead ball is mass_2. If the depression hollow left after the ball strikes the clay is shallow then the gravity law follows momentum mv, but if the depression is deep then it follows mv^2 and the Newton Universal law of Gravity is upheld. Even Newton 1642-1727 benefited from the Gravesande experiment then Chatelet's experiment follow-up and write-up of the experiment, proving that Newton's momentum mv was not true but rather mv^2.
The Gravesande-Chatelet experiments were 2 existential instantiations EI of the law of gravity. Now as more experiments of the same kind are reported then that elevates the law of gravity to Existential Generalization EG. Now we go the reverse and say that because of EG that gravity is a Universal Law UG, Universal Generalization. Now someone questions the Universal Law as to whether it is consistent with other laws such as Coulomb law which has a similar math formula. The questioning becomes severe and so a new experiment involving electricity into the Gravesande-Chatelet experiments is formulated. Some physicists build a new experiment to test the question. This is Universal Instantiation UI, upon the law of gravity, can it hold up with a new experiment? If yes, the law of gravity is even further credited as UG. If the new experiment has glitches then a new evaluation of gravity as given by its formula takes place.
Existential quantifier are the experiments. The Universal quantifier, the All or Every is tested by the experiments.
Universal quantifier is related to AND connector.
---------------------------------------------------------------
However, and surprisingly, the Universal quantifier is also related to the AND, or addition connector of Logic. This is somewhat surprising as we asked of AND why it was not the first connector to study in Logic? Seeing that addition is AND where in arithmetic we first study add, then subtract then multiply then divide.
So how is the Universal quantifier related to AND? The counting numbers of arithmetic are begot from Mathematical Induction in that given 0 and 1, keep adding 1 and you get 2, add 1 and you get to 3, so on and so on which yields all the Counting Numbers out to infinity.
We can perceive infinity as being the Universal. And what is truly Universal are the Laws of Physics and Science such as the Universal law of gravity, or the law of Coulomb or Faraday or Ohm or Ampere. In biology, the law of DNA as genetics or Cell theory. Again, in physics the laws of thermodynamics or the laws of quantum mechanics. In Chemistry, the Law of the Periodic Table of Chemical Elements. In chemistry and physics the law of Atomic theory.
But how are these Universal Laws of Science established? Certainly we cannot travel out infinitely far and check up whether gravity is universal.
And in comes the Scientific Method that explains how laws of science are made Universal. The process is much the same as Mathematical Induction, only instead of numbers, adding one more to form the next number out to infinity, instead of numbers, we have Experiment Induction. Reread the Scientific Method chapter on the enumerated points to establish a law of science. The crucial part is to do an Experiment. Now if one person formulates a law with a math formula and does an experiment and shows the results match the predictions, is not yet a law of science. We have to wait for others to read the experiment details and set-up the experiment in their lab. Repeat the experiment and if they get the same results, then we are closer to announcing that we have a Law of Science. If we wait a few years and thousands of people have performing the same experiment with the same end result, it is at this point we call our experiment a Universal law of science. There is a caveat to this, though. It could be that some future experiment on the law turns up some unknown data that calls the law into question as to its validity, or whether it needs a bit of tweaking in its formulation.
What I am trying to convey to the reader is that a Universal Law of Science is similar to the process of Mathematical Induction that has the numbers go to infinity, only we have experiments to perform, instead of adding 1 more to get the next number.
The Universal quantifier is especially important to science such as physics in that Laws of science are "universal laws". Where universal means there are no exceptions. Every mass is attracted to another mass by the formula of G(M_1*M_2)/d^2, with no exceptions. Every magnetic monopole obeys Coulomb law of K(q_1*q_2)/d^2, and never any exceptions. Laws of Physics are universal. Logic connectors starts with Existence quantifier then Not-Equal, and in between is AND, OR, If-->Then, ending with the Universal quantifier. All neat and in order of 6 connectors. Reflecting the fact that 6 operators are sufficient to describe the science of precision-- mathematics.
And now, 6 connectors are sufficient to describe the science of ideas-- Logic.
So, now, let me enumerate the 6 Laws of Logic Connectors.
Law of Existential quantifier: There exists something is formed by the best available science on the subject topic. This comes from math derivative of calculus as dy/dx and also is coupled to If-->Then as division. And in the Exist quantifier we can never have "A exists AND A does not exist" for a contradiction causes all of logic to come to a screeching halt and has to call in the sciences to overcome the contradiction before continuing further.
Law of Not-Equal: Not is a reversal of a given statement while equality is identical sameness of two statements. Now the words in the two statements can be different but the idea in both statements is the same. Not-Equal comes from multiplication in arithmetic and is coupled with Universal quantifier as the integral of calculus.
Law of AND: Joins together several statements p,q,r,s, etc of Logic and is a collective true statement provided at least one of the statements p,q,r,s, etc is true. The AND connector allows falsehoods and nonsense talk to enter arguments. And the truth comes from the pertinent science surrounding the statements. AND comes from addition in arithmetic.
Law of OR: Removes or discards ideas or subtracts one idea from another idea represented by p,q,r,s, etc. OR is the opposite of AND that joins together statements. OR removes something, be it a statement or the subtraction of one statement with another statement. OR is the connector of Deciding Experiments in science and as such allows from a variable truth value "dT" being a fraction of truth between 0 and 1.
Law of If-->Then: I like to think of If--> Then from calculus graph where we slowly move down the x-axis and graph the next coordinate point. Given statements P and Q that P moves into Q. The Law of If-->Then is both P and Q have to be true, by science, to form the conclusion of Q starting from P. And this ties in earlier with the idea that we discard all the F rows and U rows and have the T row define the connector.
Law of Universal quantifier: The Universal quantifier comes from the Existential and the two of them are duals of one another. We do numerous experiments and find all of them obey a formula. The experiments exist and once we have a number of them we elevate the idea to be a universal law through this process of Existential Instantiation, Existential Generalization, Universal Generalization, Universal Instantiation.
16) Principle of Least Energy of Physics is the Occam's Razor Principle of Logic.

16) Principle of Least Energy of Physics is the Occam's Razor Principle of Logic.
Funny for me, in writing this for 1st year college or university textbook, for the first time I am able to link Occam's Razor to being an actual Principle of Logic rather than a mere rule-of-logic that works most of the time, but not all of the time.
A rule works only sometimes.
A principle works all of the time! A principle is like a law that works all of the time.
A rule is working much of the time but breaks down and is not universal.
Before this textbook, Occam's Razor was seen as a Rule, not a law nor a principle.
And Occam's Razor is now seen as a principle.
What is the difference between a principle and a law of science? Good question. I believe the difference is that a Law has a broad range, while a principle is narrowly confined. Laws have principles inside of them. While I know of no law inside of a principle. Some principles are the Least Energy, the Pauli Exclusion Principle, the Quantum Mechanics Principle of Duality or Complementarity, the Principle of Superposition. In contrast are Laws which are more general--- Faraday law, Ampere law, gravity law, New Ohm's law.
Even geology has a principle called the Principle of Uniformitarianism which means that the processes operating today on Earth were the same processes that operated in the past-- the present is the key to the past.
Feynman describes the Principle of Least Energy as this, only he calls it the Principle of Least Action.
--- quoting Feynman in his "Lectures on Physics", 1964, volume 2, page 19-1---
When I was in high school, my physics teacher---_______ called me down one day after physics class and said, "You look bored; I want to tell you something interesting." Then he told me something which I found absolutely fascinating, and have, since then, always found fascinating.
.... the average kinetic energy less the average potential energy is as little as possible for the path of an object going from one point to another.
--- end quoting Feynman---
Let me describe the Principle of Least Energy that is more simple than Feynman's description.
AP Least Energy Principle: the motion of objects in gravity or electricity and magnetism is a path that takes and requires the least amount of energy. Nature is parsimonious when it comes to energy.
Occam's Razor is described as this--- the Most Simple Explanation of what had happened is usually the true explanation for the events that had happened. Some describe it as the explanation with the Least Number of Premisses, as Occam described it himself--- As Occam, a 14th century theologian put it himself--" entities should not be multiplied beyond necessity".
Indian philosophy has a charming way of thinking about adding more premisses than needed by saying "no need to paint legs on a snake".
Every time a strange looking object seen in the skies, there are many who jump to the added premisses that it is a outer space ship with aliens aboard is a clear example of adding on more premisses than necessary.
Now we have Occam's Razor more than a rule, but as a Principle of Science and Logic
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are able to achieve this upgrade from Rule to being a Principle because the OR connector of Logic has partial truth values along with wholesome truth values.
And this OR connector is the template of the Deciding Experiment in science. Where one of two statements is found to be superior, thus deciding the science law.
Before, I had seen Occam's Razor as an overall appraisal that was correct most of the times but not always correct. Now we can sharpen Occam's Razor by including the OR connector as Deciding Experiment.

Law enforcement, police, justice systems use Occam's Razor often, as the easiest explanation without contradictions, is the likely true account of events. And likely a good reason that my alma mater University of Cincinnati required aspiring lawyers to mandatorily take Logic in college.
So how would I describe the Principle of Occam's Razor?
I would say it is this.
Principle of Occam's Razor
-----------------------------------
When given details of an event and wanting to know the explanation of how the event came about. We list the details. Now we list a set of premisses that explains the event details. The smallest or shortest list of premisses is the true explanation of the event that occurred.

Archimedes Plutonium, Aug 8, 2021, 6:21:52 PM to sci.math
King of Logic, AP, on Masterpiece "Unforgotten" episode 5.
In a different thread I commented on this miniseries of Unforgotten. I enjoy a murder mystery as a logic puzzle and to see if the story hangs together, logically. Usually the stories fail, due to time constraints, the timeline is off. For so many of these stories would require more than a Olympic athlete running under a world record marathon race. And one of the very most broken logic of many bad stories is that the amount of activity undertaken in one day of time. Some Hollywood murder mystery tales leaves one with the impression, the murder took place in the afternoon, in late afternoon of same day they are interviewing a witness across the continent, and by evening the case is in court and by nightfall the case is ended.
But in this series of Unforgotten a new dilemma arose in logic. That the murder was 30 years ago and victim placed in a freezer, two separate freezers for 30 years. Not that this is impossible in practice, for several murders involved freezing the victim/s that were recorded in newspapers. But this does not hang together logically if 4 persons were the murders, police officers in training and illogical to think that the body would not be discovered in 30 years.
Logically, one would think that a frozen murdered body would be discovered and discovered quickly. So does Unforgotten answer these illogical freezer burial?
So today, Sunday 8Aug2021 is episode 5 "Cassie and Sunny interview two of the suspects again and get closer to the truth" reads the TV guide.
So, most murder mysteries for me dealt with a logic analysis near the end of the show, to see if pieces fit together snugly in terms of logic.
Here I have the reverse, of ---whoa-- at the start someone kills another and packs them into a freezer. And how precarious is that for never being discovered. Would not the murderer or murderers want to get the body into a more "undiscoverable location"?
So in these last remaining episodes, my attention is more focused on not who did it or why, but what type of circumstances does this story tale provide for a freezer burial.
My guess is, that the story ends with not a single mention or justification for why a freezer burial for 30 years. And that is Hollywood or BBC for you, in that tv makes up any type of story convenient for the storyteller, absent of logic.
Perhaps BBC will surprise me, and have a logical answer as to a 30 year freezer burial. Maybe the murderer was in the freezer business and was going to scrap the freezer in his business, but unexpectedly died himself, before disposing of the freezer and its contents.
So, I need to see some logic as to this freezer burial, more than who did it.
And some frozen murders are for the purpose of eating the victim. Some are for the purpose of seeing their spouse, not murdered by dying of natural causes and be able to see them as years roll by-- open the freezer. (Actual news reports).
So, what is the Unforgotten going to do-- will it hang together logically? Or will it fail miserably on the question of a freezer burial? If it fails miserably, I have second thoughts of spending time on further episodes of Unforgotten. I do not like poorly stitched together stories.
Archimedes Plutonium, Aug 16, 2021, 4:38:50 PM to sci.math:
Well, saw the last episode. Excellent drama, excellent acting, fine story, but for me, fails in logic. The story -- in 6 episodes-- starts out with a decapitated body found in a freezer, and somewhere in the story plot line should explain why criminal/s put the body in a freezer. Should explain that for the silly goofy reason of leaving a murdered body in a freezer for 30 years for surely, that freezer would highly likely be opened and the police involved.
Perhaps if they remake this series, they could easily slip into the drama, where they question the crime-family boss who murdered the victim by stabbing him in the brain with a fountain pen, that he reveals his family decapitated him and stuck into a freezer to dispose of later but just let it pass by.
A great story has to also be logically sound.
time to downgrade Melville's Moby/Alright, the British have given the King of Science a new murder mystery to rate and judge-- Magpie Murders. Several weeks ago AP destroys the Broadchurch mystery as illogical. Will Magpie Murders fair better???
Archimedes Plutonium, Oct 18, 2022, 9:13:47 PM to sci.math.
I watched just 5 minutes of Annika on PBS Masterpiece. A 6 part series of murder mystery. I turned the tv off because some actors are heavily accented that I could not understand a word they said. Not worth my time.
But it also leaves me with the question of whether Moby Dick's novel by Melville is time to be down-graded, and not taught in schools at all, because of its violence towards animals, in particular whales.
It is a highly praised novel for its "symbolism". But can it have been written without using whales???
I would say that teaching with Moby Dick is over and done with, for it teaches mostly the idea to young people-- go out and kill this and that animal.
I say, discontinue Moby Dick in school teaching.
Alright, the British have given the King of Science a new murder mystery to rate and judge-- Magpie Murders. Several weeks ago AP destroys the Broadchurch mystery as illogical. Will Magpie Murders fair better???

Alright, the British have given the King of Science a new murder mystery to rate and judge-- Magpie Murders. Several weeks ago AP destroys the Broadchurch mystery as illogical. Will Magpie Murders fair better???
So the King of Science has a new mystery murder to see if it has any logical coherence. AP is not expecting much, for in all the world of mathematics, there is no math professor alive today who can speak of the truth of conic sections-- the simple truth, and yet many High School students are smarter than the math professor in geometry-- the slant cut of cone is a Oval, never the ellipse. Simple experiment of drop a Kerr lid inside paper cone, or visualize a slant cut in cylinder is truly a ellipse, so a cone cannot be an ellipse.
So, well what does that prove about math professors? They are dumber than many High School students. And likely math professors are far dumber in logic than a mystery writer of novels. Provided the Magpie Murders pan out.
But, now, AP may just find a mystery novelist who has a marble of logical intelligence that beats out all math professors with their 1/2 to 1/3 marble of logical brains.
Now, already this 1st episode of Magpie Murders is not going logical. Maybe Alan Cumming should have prepared the viewer with the idea that 2 stories were unfolding at the same time-- two histories, for I sometimes confused the detective Pundt for the author Alan. Maybe if Mr. Cumming had told us there were 2 stories running parallel, would have made it better.
AP, your grader of murder mysteries shown on TV. Recapping the huge flaw of Broadchurch-- the lady detective knew her husband was not at home during the murder yet the writer has her not question her husband--- outright F-grade on Logic. And AP ceased watching Broadchurch. Will Magpie Murders fail dismally also??
Archimedes Plutonium, 3:36 PM to Plutonium Atom Universe newsgroup.
Alright, I am going to stop watching Magpie Murders by Anthony Horowitz. The deal with murder mysteries is that they should be 1 hour long only, and really foolish to play the public with 6 hours of one story. What Mr. Horowitz has here is an illogical Science Fiction Murder Mystery, a new category of either sci-fi or of a murder mystery.
I could not stomach Broadchurch recent murder mystery for the illogic of the lady detective knew her husband was "out the night of the murder" and too dumb to question him "where the hell were you". And something like that is not worth 6 or 12 hours out of my life to watch some hornswaggled made up b.s.
Magpie Murders is the same genre-- hornswaggled made up b.s. of illogical plot. In the first episode alone makes no logical sense-- but then, is murder itself ever logical? Or is all murder that of insanity? No, I would say that some murders are logical. But that is a different story, not here to discuss.
A murder mystery is bad when the viewer -- can see the author in the illogical scenes, for once the mind asks a question-- why did the author do it that way, then the entire story is trashed.
In the first episode-- as Susan asks-- why not sleeping pills instead of jumping off a roof and smashing your bones. But also, why jump off a roof holding a cell-phone, as we see Alan's cellphone while his sister was visiting. Would a cellphone survive a fall, and the man dies? So the solicitor comes around and rings Alan, and the signal is around the side where the tower is that we find the cellphone with Alan dead. Can a cellphone survive but the person dies, is the question of logic?
So no, AP will not watch any further the Magpie Murders. I have more important things to do in life than throw away 5 hours more.
As for the follow on mystery of "Annika" with its many episodes, no way, the British have actors with heavy accents-- very hard to make out what they are saying. Nothing more annoying in a murder mystery than losing half the dialogue. Turn off.
AP recommendation-- BBC and PBS-- too much murder mystery, that is illogical-- give us more documentaries or NATURE-- where we learn something, not hornswaggle away the hours of our life.
Archimedes Plutonium, 4:10 PM to Plutonium Atom Universe newsgroup.
TV, especially PBS, should be more like a School, a schoolroom, where we learn, but have fun also. Now a schoolroom has lessons along with playtime where kids go outside and play free time. And so, school should not be 8 hours of fun time, playing, not learning. And this equation has come to PBS and TV screens all over the world. We make fun TV, but not educational tv. We fill Sundays with hornswaggling murder mysteries that goes on for 6 hours or 12 hours, dwelling over some fictional hornswaggle.
When better-- we should make every murder mystery capped by 1 hour. There is no imagination for a murder mystery worth 6 hours or 12 hours of wasted time out of people's lives.
Now sure, if we had 6 hours or 12 hours on the birds of England, well, that is mighty mighty worthwhile or say, the dogs of England, or the cats of England. Or 6 hours on archaeology or geology of England, where we learn something genuine and worthwhile.
What possible learning can one take away from watching a "Whodunit" "Broadchurch" or "Magpie Murders" hornswaggled made up fiction plot. Almost zero worth.
Sad, that more people in England and USA will know more about some fictional Susan editor, than they will ever know who Michael Faraday was.
Archimedes Plutonium, Oct 19, 2022, 3:10:25 AM, to sci.math.
I did not know the BBC was 100 years old as of yesterday-today? May I offer some advice, please. Your Sunday's are becoming too top heavy in murder mysteries with some during the week also.
Maybe this is due to the fact that Agatha Christie had too much influence on British life.
Instead of so much murder mysteries and these are now dragging out to be 6 episodes or 12 episodes. Instead of that stuff.
How about a return to things like the Classics of I, Claudius. Or comedy like the Monty Python or the Durrells in Corfu. Have Sundays be an Upbeat day in drama, not the murder mystery.
Seems like every other week in Masterpiece Sunday drama we have a new detective-- Miss Marple, then Hercule Poirot then .... and now Atticus Pundt with a umlaut.
Why the proliferation of murder mystery, and Sundays at that. Sunday is supposed to be good cheer, and why not have drama like All Creatures Great and Small rather than this morbid murder mysteries written by authors who do not have two logical pennies to rub together.
17) Why logic is so important for science, for you will never be a good scientist without skills in logic.
Well, the obvious answer to that question is that a great experiment done in science and a bad illogical interpretation follow-up, will likely render your work tainted and blighted. A clear example of this which is detailed in my book Advanced Logic is the Rutherford, Geiger, Marsden experiment of 1911, where they shot alpha particles into a gold leaf foil and found some bounce back at 180 degrees. They interpreted this result as being proof that Atoms had a hard central nucleus of protons and neutrons. But if they had logical brains in the interpretation, they would have recognized that the bounce back alpha particles had more speed coming out than they had going into the gold atoms. This means the alpha particles hit something in a head-on collision with more momentum going in opposite direction to the alpha particles. This means Atoms have ___no nucleus___. Atoms such as gold have 79 protons forming a proton torus and inside the torus are 79 muons connected up together thrusting through the proton torus at nearly the speed of light. So the incoming alpha particles, some were hit head-on with this chain of 79 muons that bounced them back to the source with a faster exit speed than a entry speed.
What does that mean for Rutherford, Geiger, Marsden?? As the future rolls in more and more, that their mistake of believing a nucleus, will get to the point where they are seen as having been brainwashed by the Solar System model of a nuclear sun and planets as electrons. Seen as half success, half failures.
In my Advanced Logic textbook, I bring to light many of these stories of great experiments but horrible illogical interpretations. And how awful and painful that must be to the scientists who did the hard work of experimentation, yet lose credit for their work all because they could not interpret correctly the results of the experiment.
But poor in logic not only affects scientists but laypersons and common people. They are more likely to be victimized by others.
18) Completeness and Consistency in Logic.
Now the completeness and consistency of mathematics is easy to see and describe. A-lot more difficult for Logic to see and describe completeness and consistency. And this is the beauty of modeling logic after mathematics. We can see the consistency and completeness of Logic by seeing the consistency and completeness of mathematics.
First a definition of Consistency is wanted. And that is a system of objects in which contradictions do not arise. A contradiction is, if you remember when you have a statement or a premiss that has both P and not-P, that there exists P and exists not-P. That is the contradiction and we stop whatever we are doing in logic or science and have to get rid of the contradiction before moving forward.
Consistency
---------------
Consistency is a system of statements or premisses where no contradictions arise.
Second, a definition of Completeness is wanted. Completeness for mathematics is easy to show in that the Decimal Grid Numbers all come from Mathematical Induction and where any math operation of add, subtract, multiply, divide of two members produces a number of that set. Then the set is called complete.
Completeness
-----------------
So in mathematics, the Decimal 10 Grid is 0, .1, .2, .3, .. ,1.0, 1.1, ..., 9.8, 9.9, 10.0.
The algebraic completeness of 10 Grid is the 100 Grid is 0, .01, .02, .03, .. , 1.00, 1.01, ..., 99.98, 99.99, 100.00
All Grids are formed from Mathematical Induction. For the 10 Grid the math induction element is 0.1 as we constantly add 0.1 to the previous number to get the next number until we reach 10. In the 100 Grid, the math induction element is 0.01 and we constantly add that until we reach 100.
So, in Completeness of math numbers, if we take any two numbers in 10 Grid and do a add or subtract or multiply or divide on them, does that return a number inside the 100 Grid??? If yes, the set is complete.
If I multiply the 10 Grid numbers 9.9 by 9.9, I get 98.01 which clearly is in 100 Grid. If I divide 0.1 by 5, I get 0.02 which is in 100 Grid. A tricky one is divide 0.1 by 0.3 gives 0.33333.... but that is seen as 0.33 in 100 Grid. If you wanted to go to 1000 Grid it is 0.333, to 10^4 Grid it is 0.3333 etc.
The message is that Decimal Grid Numbers are a Complete set because that set such as 10 Grid and its algebraic-completeness set 100 Grid provide a answer to all 4 operators on Any Two Numbers on the 10 Grid furnish a number in the 100 Grid.
Are the Grid Numbers Consistent? They are complete, but are they consistent?
We know that division by 0, zero, is not allowed in mathematics for if we allow that to happen, then we end up with all numbers are equal to one another, such as 2 = 3, or 5 = 9, etc.
We know that 4 - 9, that is 4 subtract 9 leads to what Old Math called a negative number of -5.
So, well, Old Math was not consistent and not complete for they forgot to include several axioms to make Old Math consistent and complete.
They forgot or were too dumb to realize these axioms.
Axioms Old Math forgot or too dumb to realize.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Axiom 1. Division by zero is never allowed.
Axiom 2. You cannot subtract (remove) more than what is available to remove, and hence, no negative numbers ever exist. Negative numbers are hallucinations and imaginary falsehoods.
Axiom 3. All valid equations of mathematics must have a positive nonzero number all alone on the rightside of the equation at all times. For example: 2x^2 +3x = 6 is a valid equation of math but that 2x^2 +3x -6 = 0 is a phony equation because it allows for the existence of negative numbers and negative numbers are phony. It is super easy to solve for 2x^2 +3x = 6 as it is a little more than 1, while Old Math, which was dumb math had students plug in hard formulas to extract solutions. The entire history of Tartaglia, Cardano, Ferro, and others in solving equations that are phony was a exercise in futility and stupidity that is a hall mark of Old Math. For the reason that you must always have a positive decimal grid number on the rightside of the equation all alone and at all times is because of the fact that 0, Zero is outlawed in division. Yet all the mathematicians in Old Math were far too stupid to understand that if you cannot divide by zero, you sure cannot have it all alone on the rightside to form a equation of math or science. Here is where Logic firmly steps into math and science and informs the fool of Old Math, that if 0 can not be a divisor, it surely cannot be a solution to a entire equation.
Axiom 4. All graphs of math are 1st quadrant only starting with (0,0) in plane of x and y axes. Starting with (0,0,0) in 3rd dimension of x,y,z axes. Logically, if negative numbers do not exist, then graphing in mathematics has no negative numbers and these absurd, foolish negative quadrants.
Axiom 5. The Only Valid Functions of math are the Polynomials, for the polynomials are discrete (not a continuum) just as the Decimal Grid Numbers are discrete with holes in between one number and the next number. This axiom is essential for the Calculus to exist. Without this axiom, there be no calculus in math or science.
The take-away from this is that Math-Induction on discrete decimal Grid Number systems defines consistency and completeness.
The funny story of Prime numbers in Old Math for primes are phony.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The story of consistency and completeness of Old Math should include the story of Primes, for primes are Incomplete and shows us the importance of Completeness.
The fools of Old Math found a concept they called Prime. In the counting-numbers, 1,2,3,4,5, ...... They found a definition that some numbers like 2 and 3 and 5 were divisible only by 1 and themselves, while other numbers like 4, 6, 8, 9, 10 were divisible by themselves and by 1 but by other numbers, like 4 is divisible by 2, and 9 is divisible by 3 and 10 by 2 and 5. So Old Math spent huge amounts of time on this concept of Prime.
But should they have spent so much time on Primes??
No, for --if they had trained and learned Logic well enough, they would have come to a chapter of Logic that speaks of Completeness.
You see, in Decimal Grid Numbers as the true numbers of all of mathematics, there is no concept of Prime in Grid Numbers. Every Grid number has multiple factors.
So what went wrong in Old Math, where is the source of their stupidity??
The source is this concept in Logic called Completeness.
To be complete you have to produce a number within the system to all 4 operators of add, subtract, multiply, divide, remembering the Axioms.
You see, the Counting Numbers are ___not complete to division___. The decimal grid numbers are complete to division as shown earlier.
Why are the Counting Numbers not complete to division?? The counting numbers are complete to multiplication for take Any two counting numbers multiply them and they return to you another counting number. We cannot say that for division. Take for example 5 divided by 2 and it returns a number that is not a counting number 2.5.
The Counting Numbers are ___not complete___ to division, means that any construct of a concept of Prime is a phony construct.
This is why there never is a Pattern for Primes. Why there is never an exact formula for primes. Because the entire concept of Prime in Old Math is total phony garbage. In fact, I could say that what is ghosts, witches, hobgoblins to physics, is what is Prime-number in mathematics.
This is the whole trouble of mathematicians coming out of colleges and universities across the globe. Sure, they can compute this that and whatever. But ask them to think straight and think clearly is a vacuum for them, for they know nothing of Logical Reasoning, and schools do not insist they mandatorily take Logic.
Now we have to ask the question is Physics, the King of all Science, is it consistent and complete??? Excellent question. And I am not going to go in any depth with this discussion but save it for the textbook "Intermediate Logic" and then for the textbook "Advanced Logic".
Is Physics complete and consistent?
-----------------------------------------------
I am well aware that my audience of students, who have not had much physics if at all, any physics. So I have to keep this lecture brief and clear and easy.
Physics has forces and by the year 1930, there were 4 forces known to the physics community and they called them (1) Electromagnetic force (2) gravity force (3) weak- nuclear as radioactivity (4) strong-nuclear as in atomic bombs and E=mc^2.
But no-one in physics was able to Unify these 4 forces, until AP did such in the early 1990s. The AP unification arises by taking the one force of the 4 known and asking which of those 4 forces has the most "perfect particle"???? The answer should be immediate. Only the Electromagnetic force has a "perfect particle" in the photon with its speed of light and zero rest mass. Where its speed is a maximum constant.
By Logic, therefore, the gravity, the weak-nuclear, the strong-nuclear must simply, very simply be just manifestations of the Electromagnetic force. I discovered the Unification of forces in early years of 1990 and posted my discovery extensively to Usenet after 1993.
And in the year 2016-2017, I discovered that the proton was really 840MeV not 938MeV and the neutron when fully grown is really 945MeV and not 940MeV because I discovered that 9 x 105 = 945. The Muon of physics is truly 105MeV, meaning the true electron of Atoms is the muon and that the Old Physics fools thought that JJ Thomson's 0.5MeV particle is the electron of atoms, but it turns out that Curie and Dirac were looking for a magnetic monopole, the unit of electricity in Electromagnetic Force.
When you discover that the Proton is a torus and the Neutrons are parallel plate capacitors, much like the plates that go to make a battery, you thus discover that the Atom has ____no nucleus____ for it is a single torus of protons surrounded by neutrons as parallel plates of a capacitor.
All of a sudden, there is no more 4 forces of physics but only 3, the electromagnetic, the gravity and the radioactivity force.
The Unification of forces of Physics still holds as being Electromagnetic and that gravity is a manifestation of Electricity and Magnetism. So also is radioactivity is a manifestation of Electricity and Magnetism.
My unification of the 4 that became 3 forces of Nature, is a Completeness and a Consistency of the science of Physics.
With my unification I could thence proudly say this Primal Axiom over all of Science, including Logic and mathematics.
Primal Axiom over all Science, all Knowledge
----------------------------------------------------------
All is Atom, and Atoms are nothing but electricity and magnetism.
19) The short Logic Argument, the syllogism.
It is a shame that the bulk of Logic is the Logical Argument, yet in this textbook, I discuss the Logical Argument in just two of the last chapters. The bulk of this book should be, I would say 60 to 70 percent devoted to the Logical Arguments and analyzing them. In my Advanced Logic textbook, however, I remedy this problem for in that textbook 90% is analysis of Logical Arguments.
In the Elementary and Intermediate Logic textbooks only about 20% is the Logical Argument.
As mentioned several times earlier, in Logic we have Statements of Ideas, listed symbolically as p,q,r,s,t, etc etc. Now those statements can be compounded by connectors of AND, OR, Equal-Not, If-->Then.
Then, later on I introduced the Premiss or Premisses of Logic. What are premisses compared to Statements?
Premisses are Statements but Only True Statements. We symbolize premisses with letters of the alphabet the same as Statements.
What are Statements compared to Premisses?
-----------------------------------------------------------
Each statement in Logic is a single idea. A compound statement of Logic is when you have two or more single ideas connected by a Logic connector AND, OR, Equal-Not, If-->Then.
A premiss of Logic is a statement or compound statement that is a True statement. The only false ideas allowed in a Logic Argument that is step by step premisses making the argument, the only falsehood allowed is when you have a compound statement of AND for the AND truth table allows for false statements. And also, in the OR truth table we allow for a partial-true statement which we called "dT" and that partial truth statement contains some falsehood. But that is it, that is all we allow of falsehood in a Logic Argument.
In a Logic argument we have a list of premisses as illustrated thus.
P_1
P_2
P_3
.
.
P_n
C for conclusion
Each of those premisses is full true. The only falsehood allowed in the premisses is a compound statement using AND or using OR with a "dT" partial truth.
AP Principle to Form an Argument of Logic-- all the premisses must be true as checked by science in order to have an argument of logic.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The idea here is that we have seen plenty of truth-tables for the 4 connectors of Not-Equal, AND, OR, If-->Then and we see many false statements as if routine in living life that false statements are abundant and that we must navigate around them. Instead, in science especially, those false statements are seldom or rare to the discussion or argument. In fact, in every science argument, I have ever seen in life, the advocates are attempting to use only True Statement Premisses, and eliminate all statements that are false, chitter-chatter, time wasting statements. They try to use only true statements in the argument at hand.
That idea is the gist of the AP Principle above-- in any argument, especially science even a layman argument, we strive to put only True statements in the ongoing argument.
Most colleges have a debate club, even some High Schools have a debate club. It is nice for a debate to have statements that are all true, composing the Premisses of the Argument. But naturally, debates break down where it becomes just a verbal shouting match filled with falsehoods and ad hominem nonsense.
So I was wondering if anyone else had this idea before me. The idea that a Logical Argument is where only True ideas are acceptable for the statements p,q,r,s,t,u etc that go to make up the Premisses of the Logic Argument???
I started earlier in this book with the famous Aristotle syllogism: All men are mortal / Socrates is a man / therefore Socrates is mortal. But what exactly is a syllogism?
Early on, I started this 1st year college Logic textbook with a syllogism. What is a syllogism?? Some definitions say a syllogism is a (1) Formal Argument, or (2) a Deductive Argument, or (3) a Deductive Reasoning.
A syllogism to Logic is what a proof of math is to mathematics. Syllogism is just a fancy word for a logical argument. The etymology of "syllogism" comes from Greek "logos" to reason and "syl" together with; ------to mean --- to reason together with.
I myself took 2 years of College Logic at University of Cincinnati, 1968-1972, and found it exciting and exhilarating.
Here I am at age 75-76, and demanding that all scientists wanting a degree in science to mandatory have take 2 years of college logic.
That is not possible now, because the logic textbooks are full of error, so bad of error that they are not worth teaching from. And perhaps cause more damage than if not taught logic at all.
In a subtle way, when I was in college and taking those 2 years of Logic, I remember several instances of where I rebuked the truth tables that the book was teaching. The truth table of If-->Then was crazy and the truth table of OR and the varieties of OR were crazy. But I was not going to battle with professors, for I wanted a good grade.
But now, over 50 years later, I want to toss out all that junk logic on a pile of shame and have Logic Textbooks worth teaching.
The first Logic Syllogism that I learned was this.
All men are mortal.
Socrates is a man.
Thus Socrates is mortal.
Another syllogism was given and it goes like this in college.
All animals breathe oxygen..
All fish are animals.
Thus all fish breathe oxygen.
The spirit of deduction is shown in giving a syllogism. The last line is forced to come from the two previous lines.
Syllogism is just fancy name for Argument. It is the most simple Logic Argument for it is a 2 lines of Premiss and then a Conclusion. I prefer to call all logical arguments just simply a "argument". But since the history of logic started way back in Ancient Greek times and used the word "syllogism", I am going to continue the tradition and use the concept of syllogism as a two premiss argument that ends in a deduced conclusion.
Remember, I started this textbook teaching what a deduction is with the syllogism of Socrates.
All men are mortal.
Socrates is a man.
Thus Socrates is mortal.
The Atomic theory of science is the greatest syllogism of all time.
All Matter is made up of Atoms of one of the 114 or more chemical elements of the Periodic Table of Elements.
The Universe is matter.
Therefore the Universe itself is one of those 114 chemical elements.
The atom that best fits the important numbers of physics and math is 231Plutonium.
Now, many many people who think they have a logical mind-brain but really are failures of logic think they see holes and flaws in that Atomic Theory Syllogism. But they are mistaken. For if the Atomic Theory Syllogism is not true, then the Atomic theory is not a Universal Law of Science, just a mere little rule-- sometimes correct, sometimes wrong. And we cannot accept that for the greatest theory of all in science.
So the many fools who think there are flaws and holes to the Atomic Theory Syllogism saying stupid things like-- Universe is a molecule or it is many atoms but not one single atom. They are mistaken, for the Atomic Theory to be *** universal *** requires the entire universe be a single atom.
That has to be the Atomic theory of physics for otherwise the Atomic theory is a mere and meager rule, sometimes correct sometimes wrong. We cannot have the most important science theory a rule. It must be a theory that applies in general and is universal.
Copi "Introduction to Logic" 4th edition, 1972, defines the Logical Argument called "Syllogism" as that of --- A syllogism is a deductive argument in which a conclusion is inferred from two premisses." Copi starts his chapter with a quote from Leibniz, the co-discoverer of calculus along with Newton. Leibniz says "I consider the invention of the form of syllogism one of the most beautiful, and also one of the most important, made by the human mind."
AP writes: I do not know why Leibniz said that and seems to me as over-praise, or exaggeration.
For me, I look at arguments of Logic to be of any length and why get enamored with a length of 2 premisses leading to a conclusion.
I am going to strictly follow the definition of syllogism by Copi and others and say that a syllogism can be of any short logic argument you want, whether 1 premiss and conclusion or 2 premisses and conclusion or a larger number of premisses and a conclusion.
I use the Atomic Theory as outlined in Feynman's Lectures on Physics, 1963.
Plutonium Atom Totality syllogism
-----------------------------------
(1) All things are made up of individual atoms, one of 114 of the chemical elements.
(2) The Universe is a thing.
___________________
(3) Therefore, the Universe is a single big Atom and the chemical element that fits the numbers of physics the best is plutonium.
In the next chapter on long Logical Arguments, I re-do the Plutonium Atom Totality be a argument of 19 paragraphs, that is 19 Premisses in stepwise fashion, concluding it exists as a single big plutonium atom, otherwise the Atomic Theory is not a theory but a rule that is sometimes false, for rules are not universal. I further go on to add 4 more Premisses (paragraphs) in the logical argument to total 23 Premisses (paragraphs).
So, well, let us judge. Is my syllogism correct? Yes it is logically correct. But when we see it as a 23 Premiss paragraph syllogism we see the mechanism and the future meaning and purpose of the Universe. And the Logical mechanism that persuades the truth of the Atom Totality is the idea that the most important theory in all of science-- the Atomic Theory is just a rule if it did not encompass the Universe itself in total.
You see, the 3 line syllogism does not convey the key idea of how the conclusion is begot. It is begot because the Atomic Theory needs to be Universal and not a rule.
And also, the detail of why the Universe cannot be a molecule or a chemical mixture of many atoms but a single big atom has to do with creation of an Atom Totality. For the progression has to follow from the Proton torus making more atoms in the Faraday Law, and changing the proton torus of Hydrogen to form Helium and changing the proton torus of Helium to form Lithium all the way up to Uranium and changing its proton torus to form a single big atom of Plutonium.
You see, just a simple 2 premisses misses all those deductions while 19 premiss-paragraphs and 23 premiss-paragraphs fills in the needed details.
I would say, that the definition of Syllogism of Old Logic with its mere 2 premisses and a conclusion was for the intent of showing the most simple form of a logic argument. Much like in mathematics, when we teach add to youngsters we first start out with adding two numbers like 1+2 = 3. We do not teach 6.3 + 8.9 + 0.5 + 15 until much later.
Most science logic arguments I have encountered that are important such as Plutonium Atom Totality, or the Atom is a proton torus and no nucleus, or the Calculus is where derivative is a connector of Leftwall point to Rightwall point, or that a slant cut of cone is oval, not ellipse, all these arguments take numerous premiss-paragraphs.
So when I say the term "syllogism" my definition is that it is a short logical argument of a few number of premisses to reach a conclusion. I define syllogism as a form where you have a numbered lot of premisses that reaches a final conclusion. Instead of saying "Logical Argument", I sometimes like to say simply "Syllogism".
20) The long Logic Argument.
Now let me give three new long arguments, instead of the short and brief arguments of syllogism. Notice in all these arguments, short and brief or long, that every step of premisses are true statements from the best available science of the time.
First let me give an argument from biology that overturns biology's Darwin Evolution. The argument comes from physics quantum mechanics of the Bell Inequality which experiments such as Aspect in France confirmed Bell to be true.
Argument that Superdeterminism replaces Darwin biology evolution theory.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Darwin Evolution is defined as being 4 concepts the Modern Synthesis of Darwin Evolution theory as four operating axioms (1) Mutation (2) Genetic Recombination (3) Natural Selection and (4) Reproductive Isolation.
2) A picture scenario of Darwin Evolution is that a given species, where an individual is born who has a genetic mutation. The mutation often is deleterious to the individual and dies early without mating and passing on her/his genes. Sometimes the mutation and genetic recombination is beneficial to where the individual gets more food; gets more mates; has more offspring than others and so the mutation increases the number of individuals with that genetic code.
3) Natural Selection is the part where the beneficial new genes have an easier time of getting more food and more mates to raise more offspring. Soon the population has many individuals with those genes.
4) When the population is isolated, by geography, from other members of the same species then further mutations and genetic recombination makes the isolated species drift further and further away from the original species genetic blueprint, that the isolated population can no longer mate with the original genetic code from whence they came from, and become a brand new species in their own right.
5) So in quantum mechanics the question was asked if we start with two particles that are connected and split apart and sent to opposite sides of the Universe at the speed of light or nearly the speed of light, and then particle A has a change of spin. The question becomes will particle B have some change of spin?
6) Because particles A and B are on opposite sides of the Universe, hard to imagine particle A change in spin could cause a change in particle B. Yet through careful experiments on this "quantum entanglement" it was found surprisingly, that a change in particle A causes a immediate change in particle B, no matter how far apart they are.
7) We interpret quantum entanglement to mean that the Universe has no free-will, and that the Universe has Superdeterminism going on. The future fate of plants and animals is predetermined.
8) Biology Darwin Evolution is based on probabilities, probability of getting a mutation, genetic recombination.
9) Physics is based on quantum mechanics which finds the world is run by superdeterminism of happenings already predetermined. Darwin Evolution is contradictory to Superdeterminism.
10) But experiments all come back with evidence that Superdeterminism is true. Thus, Darwin Evolution is a rule that is often correct but not always correct. While Superdeterminism is always correct for all the experiments come out in Superdeterminism's favor.
Second, let us draw a logic argument out of Geology.
Argument that plate tectonics and earthquakes are caused from the Earth's cores as vibrations, and not from Convection currents.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Earth has 2 cores, an outer and inner core, which can be pictured as an electric dynamo, a electric motor.
2) Electric motors have vibrations, and a refrigerator vibrates very much so when running.
3) If we put pots on the top of a refrigerator, in time the pots fall off due to the vibrations of the electric motor.
4) In the same manner, we can picture the continents on the surface of Earth as pots on top of the refrigerator, being vibrated by the electric dynamo of Earth's cores.
5) Old Geology believes that Continental Drift and Earthquakes is caused by Convection currents inside of Earth's mantle.
6) So a deciding experiment is needed to tell whether Continental Drift and Earthquakes are caused by convection currents or by vibrations of Earth's motor-cores.
7) The deciding evidence from news of "Tectonic Plate Motion Reversal Near Acapulco" where the motion shifts direction and reverses, points to a cause of Vibration.
Third, let me give an argument from calculus math, since almost everyone in science has to take calculus. An argument which says that the only valid numbers for mathematics have to be Decimal Grid Numbers and cannot be the Reals, for to have calculus exist, it needs empty space between one number and the next successive number. The Reals are a continuum and does not allow empty space from one number to the next number, which destroys the formation and the very existence of calculus.
Argument that the true numbers of mathematics are the Decimal Grid Numbers and the Reals are fakery.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) The Decimal Grid Numbers are formed from Mathematical Induction from a decimal number as the constant addition of that inductor element. The smallest such Grid is the 10 Grid where the inductor element is 0.1 with the adding of that starting at 0 until 10 is reached. The entire set of 10 Decimal Grid is {0, .1, .2, .3, ... 9.8, 9.9, 10} , counting 0 it has 101 elements, and not counting 0 it has 100 elements.
2) The Decimal 10 Grid Numbers have empty space in between one number and the very next number where no numbers exist in that empty space.
3) All functions are graphed in Calculus, and the derivative at point x on the x-axis, must connect to the successor x which has a unique y value.
4) The Reals as numbers are a continuum, no empty space from one number to the next number.
5) For example the derivative in 10 Decimal Grid of the function Y = x^2 at x= 1 then y = 1, at x=2 then y=4, at x=3 then y= 9 in which we plot it in 10 Grid as coordinate point (1, 1), (2,4), (3,9).
6) Every derivative in Decimal Grid Numbers has a cell of a leftwall and a rightwall. For the above example the leftwall is (1,1) then the rightwall is (2,4). When the leftwall is (2,4) then the rightwall is (3,9).
7) The cell as a trapezoid allows us to find a midpoint of the right triangle formed by the derivative, and to split that right triangle in half and lowering the half portion down to transform that trapezoid to become, now, a rectangle. The area of this rectangle is now the integral of the function Y=x^2 in the interval 1 to 2, then 2 to 3.
8) When the numbers of mathematics are Reals, with their no empty space, one cannot form a derivative as there is an infinity of Reals between any two points.
9) Since we cannot form a derivative, no integral can be formed with Reals. And so no calculus can exist with Reals.
10) This proof that the true numbers of mathematics have to be Decimal Grid Numbers is the reason that no-one in Old Math was ever able to do a Geometry proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, because Old Math never paid attention to the physics community of Max Planck discovery in year 1900 that Physics is discrete and not a continuum and the start of Quantum Mechanics. No, the math community remained stuck with continuum from 1900 to 2015 when AP found the first true valid proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus.
Again the Atom Totality theory in long argument but before I dive into it let me speak of a concept that permeates science. It is called Symmetry.
Symmetry
------------
I would define symmetry is in the half of mathematics that is geometry. Math is split into geometry and the other half is numbers-algebra. In geometry, if we have a geometry figure that can be cut into 2 pieces and both pieces are identical with each other, then that original figure has what is called "symmetry". If not, the figure is called asymmetrical.
Now a circle has perfect symmetry for no matter where you cut that is a diameter, it produces 2 equal parts called a semicircle. A square has symmetry but you have to be careful where you cut. An isosceles right triangle has one axis symmetry, but a right triangle that is not isosceles has no axes of symmetry, and is asymmetrical.
The slant cut of a cylinder is the symmetrical figure of the ellipse, for the cylinder has 2 axes of symmetry and the ellipse, also, has two axes of symmetry. The slant cut of cone is a Oval, not an ellipse where both cone and oval have but 1 axis of symmetry. This math problem was not solved and realized until Archimedes Plutonium found this mistake in 2016, and corrected it. The entire math community worldwide is reeling and in disbelief that they were too stupid to see this truth themselves. In fact, as of this writing in Feb2026, Wikipedia and all geometry textbooks mistakenly say the slant cut of cone is ellipse when they should say it is a oval.
So, why spend time on talking about Symmetry??? The answer is quite simple. That science is permeated throughout in symmetry. That the laws of physics are symmetrical-- Ampere law symmetrical to Faraday law. One has magnetism begot from electric current, the other is current begot from magnetism.
A famous, extremely famous adventure in the history of physics was started by Pierre Curie and taken up by Paul Dirac. They looked at the Old Maxwell Equations and were unhappy with its asymmetry which the Gauss's law says that "no magnetic monopoles exist." This is asymmetry in the Old Maxwell Equations. And Curie-Dirac looked and looked for the "magnetic monopole". Actually, it was right under their noses all along when JJ Thomson in 1897 discovered a elementary particle which was 0.5MeV and he called it the atom's electron. Thomson was wrong as well as all physicists who came after Thomson. The Atom's true electron is the Muon of 105MeV and stuck inside the hydrogen proton torus of 840MeV doing the Faraday law. So what is the 0.5MeV particle?? That is the magnetic monopole. The point I am making is what gave Curie and Dirac the intuition and stamina to believe and look for a magnetic monopole for much of their lives??? That was "symmetry", the belief and conviction by Curie and Dirac, that NATURE is symmetrical, not asymmetrical and the magnetic monopole must exist to have Nature symmetrical.
Atom Totality Theory in long Logic Argument
------- Facts and definitions of Atom Totality ------
1) All Matter is one of 114 Chemical Elements of the Periodic Table of Chemical Elements. This is the definition of Matter and Matter has rest mass. Reason:: Chemistry's Periodic Table of Chemical Elements.
2) The 114 Chemical Elements are each Atoms, and a atom is defined as having three components --- Protons, Muons, Neutrons for which these three components engage in the Faraday and Ampere law and Capacitor law and other Electromagnetic Laws. Reason:: Physics Atomic Theory.
3) The Proton is a coil torus and all the protons form a single torus, with muons inside this proton torus act as bar magnets thrusting through the proton torus in the Faraday law producing new electricity and electromagnetic radiation. Reason:: Proton +Muon inside equals 938MeV, and neutron equals 940MeV, both within sigma error of 945MeV with the AP EM laws of physics that all elementary particles have a function in the EM laws such as proton is the coil in Faraday law and muon the true electron of Atoms is the bar magnet in Faraday law.
4) The electricity and electromagnetic radiation produced by proton-muons is storaged in neutrons as parallel plate capacitors. But some of the radiation is emitted out of the atom such as starshine and sunshine. Emitted out as EM radiation but still connected with the atom of origin until absorbed by a new atom. Reason:: AP EM laws of electromagnetism.
5) Stars and Sun shine not from fusion but from Faraday law, and it is the Faraday law that builds stars and planets and other astronomical bodies. As the storage of electricity in Faraday law proton-muon builds up neutrons to become new hydrogen atoms or other atoms. Reason:: fusion depends on probability of collisions, while Faraday law is assured certainty of producing electricity energy from a perpetual motion thrusting muon inside a proton torus coil. Stars and Sun shine so dependably that fusion is unable to supply this dependable energy.
---------- Facts and definitions of Space where few if any matter exists -----
6) What is not matter, is empty space full of Electromagnetic Radiation pencil ellipses of Light Waves and subatomic particles traveling through the Cosmos. The empty space of a plutonium atom matches the empty space seen in Astronomy where there are few galaxies, and stars. Rutherford-Geiger-Marsden gold leaf experiment points to empty space similar to astronomy empty space. Reason:: Rutherford-Geiger-Marsden gold leaf experiment 1906-1913.
7) EM radiation is a circuit, although a pencil-ellipse, it is always connected with the atom that gave it birth, until the radiation is absorbed in other atoms. Reason:: The laws of electromagnetism form the electromagnetic spectrum.
8) Space can be empty of Atoms, but is always containing electromagnetic radiation, pencil ellipses of Light waves going at the speed of light in closed loop pencil ellipses always connected with the Atom of origin or the Atom it is absorbed by. Reason:: Particle to Wave duality of Quantum Mechanics.
9) Subatomic particles that escape an atom, are always connected with its original atom via the EM radiation is a closed loop, until the subatomic particle is absorbed by a new atom. Reason:: Coulomb law of electromagnetism.
10) All subatomic particles or EM energy outside an Atom are all connected to their atom of origin until absorbed by a new atom and then connected to the new atom. Reason:: Coulomb law of electromagnetism.
------- Growth in an Atom Totality -----
11) Growth in Atom Totality is caused by Faraday and Ampere law and Capacitor law, especially in Faraday law where a thrusting bar magnet through a coil of wire produces new electricity the 0.5MeV Dirac magnetic monopoles which have rest mass but also in the EM radiation given off in Faraday law. This is a conversion of Space into new mass. And the Sun and stars shine from Faraday law, not fusion. As each atom is composed of protons which has muons inside the proton torus doing the Faraday law. Reason:: Universal laws of Electromagnetism.
12) In Astronomy, the galaxies form rings which is a small part of a Cosmic Proton torus and the galaxies form Cosmic Muons thrusting through the Cosmic Proton producing electricity and radiation. We see and measure this in the form of cosmic gamma rays. Astronomy sees this as the Ring of Galaxies in 3rd layer as reported by Caltech. Plutonium Atom Totality has 94 x 840 = 78960 Cosmic Proton Rings and we are beginning to see just 2 or 3 of these rings in our corner of the Plutonium Atom Totality. The muons inside this Cosmic Proton torus are a bar magnet that is 94 x 105 = 9870 connected Cosmic Muon Chain inside the Cosmic Proton. We seem to have a nexus of galaxies in that some are moving perpendicular to one another in the Ring in the 3rd layer. Reason:: Applying observations of science to the laws of electromagnetism.
13) Chemistry sees this as the concentration of high atomic number elements in ore deposits as a direct result of Faraday law growth. Elements created as ores in planets, moons and asteroids. Reason:: Faraday law of electromagnetism.
----- Concluding the Atom Totality is a single big atom of plutonium ------
14) The Universe itself has mass and matter. Reason:: Everyday observation of the world we live in.
15) Hence the Universe is one of the 114 chemical elements, and the plutonium atom fits the special numbers of math and physics such as pi = 3.14... as 22/7 and e = 2.718... as 19/7, the Fine Structure Constant, the best fit. Reason:: Fulfillment of the Atomic Theory as Universal Generalization law-- all matter comes down to being one of the 114 known chemical elements.
16) The Atom Totality is different from the atoms it contains inside the Atom Totality, simply as a mass and size difference. For a Plutonium atom found inside the Plutonium Atom Totality is many times exponentially smaller mass and size. Reason:: One atom contains all the other atoms inside itself. Plus, the Symmetry of Physics is restored-- one atom whole containing all other atoms of the universe preserves symmetry.
17) The Atom Totality must be a single Atom, for the growth pattern is Atoms giving birth to new atoms via Faraday law. The Universe cannot be a molecule for the growth pattern is not set up to create molecules. Reason:: Faraday law give rise to new electricity which is storaged in neutrons as parallel plate capacitors that keep growing until the neutron forms a new atom of hydrogen, then the hydrogen neutron forms helium, and so on.
18) The Atom Totality must be true, otherwise the Atomic Theory is a mere and meager rule and not a law or theory of science. Laws and theories of science are Universal, while a rule of science is sometimes correct, often wrong. Reason:: The Scientific Method in working order.
19) The Atom Totality as a Law and Theory of science propounds the axiomatic principle of science--- All is Atom and Atoms are nothing but electricity and magnetism. Meaning that all science reduces to the laws of electromagnetism. Reason:: Atomic theory and Electromagnetic laws are one and the same.
----- Purpose of Life in an Atom Totality -------
20) Purpose of life in an Atom Totality is to nucleosynthesize heavy elements impossible to nucleosynthesize in stars or supernova. Life was not needed in prior Atom Totalities of helium up to lead as Faraday Law could build an atom twice the atomic number and spontaneous fission into the newly created Atom Totality. But life in Atom Totalities were required to create new Atom Totalities beyond lead. This would mean that life, intelligent life to do nucleosynthesis, existed for billions and billions of years long before planet Earth and humans arrived in the Plutonium Atom Totality. Whether life lives after spontaneous fission into a new Atom Totality is unknown at this time. I am guessing life lives through the birth of a new Atom Totality. Reason:: If Atoms are all that exists, makes logical sense that life is created to further increase more Atoms.
21) As Life nucleosynthesizes Element 192 it will __spontaneously fission__ into a Curium Atom Totality. Life is uniformly spread throughout the Universe and its mission is to create the next Atom Totality. Reason:: Today we, as life on Earth, has nucleosynthesized element 114. We have a long ways to go before nucleosynthesizing element 192.
22) As Element 192 is formed by bombarding Curium with other Curium atoms until two fuse together to briefly form Element 192 which immediately decays into the Curium Atom Totality in equal parts, one curium atom being particle the other being wave (one being electricity rest mass, the other curium atom being magnetism energy). The need for the Atom Totality to be an even proton number-- atomic number--- is so that the spontaneous fission creates two equal atoms. One to give the rest mass Curium Atom Totality and the other to give the energy of the Curium Atom Totality. Reason:: Our best state of physics knowledge at present.
23) If humanity saves itself from extinction and oblivion by making Europa our permanent new home in the next 1,000 years, because our Sun has gone Red Giant phase and will swallow Earth in due course. Then on Europa, after we become settled in, our mission there will be to build cyclotrons to bombard curium atoms into other curium atoms hoping to get two to fuse and nucleosynthesize element 192 and create the New Curium Atom Totality. We will likely have competitors in billions of other solar systems in the Universe. It is a race to create the New God-- Curium Atom Totality. Reason:: How physics works and reveals the truth.
21) Fallacies of Logic.
I have refined the list of Logic Fallacies to be seven broad groups. Copi in his Introduction to Logic, 4th edition, 1972 has many more. I feel seven is enough. For categorization of fallacies is not-a-well-defined-exercise, some fallacies can be called non-sequitur along with ad hominem along with mis-identification. There is much overlap in fallacies. A fallacy can be several fallacy types all bundled into one. A chapter on logic fallacies is more of an exercise in teaching students of what to be aware of in making mistakes of logic.
1) Mistake calculation error
2) Ambiguity -- lack of well defined or unclear parameters
3) Non-Sequitur
4) Ad Hominem
5) Mis-identification
6) Mistakes in Existence-Nonexistence for the derivative is the existential quantifier-- the "assumed to exist" fallacy.
7) Mistakes in Universal for the integral is the universal quantifier-- the giver of consistency and completeness.
Now there is no hard line list of fallacies and many fallacies are a mixture of two or three other fallacies. So do not be troubled if you think a fallacy is Ad Hominem and Ambiguity and Mis-identification. No, there is no hard line and a different author on logic fallacies may have a totally different list than my list.
Throughout this textbook I have leaned on mathematics to tell and hint at the truths of Logic. May as well lean on mathematics for the Fallacies of Logic.
1) Mistake error such as in a calculation Example 2 + 2 = 5.
2) Ambiguity -- lack of well defined or unclear parameters such as in 2/3+1, not knowing if it is 2/4 or (2/3) +1.
3) Non Sequitur (does not follow) The name pretty well describes all you need to know when this fallacy is committed. Example: use of limits in proof of Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, FTC is mindless fruitcake. Where in FTC you need to prove derivative is reverse of integral and integral is reverse of derivative, and a stupid limit analysis of whether x gets arbitrarily close to y is mindless folly.
4) Ad Hominem (attack of the person rather than the ideas on hand) Example: university math departments attacking AP for showing the slant cut of cone has to be an Oval, never ellipse.
5) Mis-identification Example: Slant cut of cone cannot be ellipse when assuredly slant cut of cylinder is ellipse and like Mark Barton of University Glasgow keeps saying of math professors--- raving nutters.

Another misidentification of major importance in math is the true numbers of mathematics must be the Decimal Grid Numbers where you have discreteness of numbers needed for Quantum Mechanics of physics. Old Math was such a stupid lot of math professors that when year 1900 rolled in with Max Planck discovery that all of physics was discrete, well, the stupid idiots of math professors totally ignored physics and went on with their insane program of --- totalitarian dictator completeness in their stinking Reals as numbers. Another example of Mis-identification in Old Math was their derivative. The fools thought the derivative is a tangent line to the function graph, when in reality, with discrete numbers, the derivative is the actual original function itself as the derivative moves from prior coordinate point to the very next coordinate point.
Mis-identification as a fallacy often leads to a catastrophe in a science for it can thwart the truth for centuries. Example: In physics they misidentified the true electron, thinking it was the 0.5MeV particle when in truth it is the muon at 105MeV stuck inside a proton torus doing the Faraday law with the proton torus. Here is where a mis-identity has lead to a major crisis in physics for the dolts still think the Sun shines from fusion when in truth it shines from Faraday law. And unless physics and the humans on Earth wake up to reality and make a permanent colony on Europa in the next 1,000 years, the species call Homo sapiens easily can go extinct soon.
6) Mistakes in Existence-Nonexistence for the derivative is the existential quantifier-- the "assumed to exist" fallacy.
Examples of this fallacy: computers doing proofs of mathematics. The 4-Color Mapping travesty. All Old Math Reductio Ad Absurdum proofs run afoul of Existence mistakes. By assuming something to exist when it never existed does not lead to a valid end conclusion, and we learned this with the truth table of the If-->Then the last 2 rows are --- U, for undefined, unknown.
7) Mistakes in Universal for the integral is the universal quantifier-- the giver of consistency and completeness.
There are many big mistakes in the Universal quantifier in Old Math. The one that sticks out the most at first is the lunatic idea in Old Math that you could remove (subtract) more than what is available to remove or subtract, leading to the oppressive and hideous "negative numbers concept". Old Math professors seldom have any shame.

Fallacy of logic mistake-error-calculation: made by Kibo Parry who cannot even do a correct percentage calculation and claims to have a degree from Rensselaer Polytech in engineering. Personally, I would never drive over a bridge designed by someone calling themselves an engineer and who fails at even simple percentage problems: who thinks 938 is 12% short of 945. And, I think Rensselaer Polytech, in my opinion should be downgrade in accreditation for graduating a engineer who is unable to do correct percentages.

A fallacy often made in physics is the notion that "heat rises". Dr. Baird of West Texas A&M University straightens us out on that idea that convection rises but Infrared Radiation does __not rise__. Logic behind this is that if Infrared radiation rises, they we should expect Visible Light Waves to also "rise" and such has never been observed.
--- quoting a site on Internet---
What makes heat rise?
Category: Physics Published: July 10, 2014
By: Christopher S. Baird, author of The Top 50 Science Questions with Surprising Answers and Associate Professor of Physics at West Texas A&M University.
Radiation: All wavelengths of electromagnetic waves, including light, carry energy. When the electromagnetic waves strike an object, they are partially absorbed and the energy that the waves carried is converted to heat in the object. Also, hot objects emit electromagnetic waves ("thermal radiation") that carry away energy and can heat up other objects that they hit. In a loose sense, you can think of electromagnetic waves as transferring heat from one object to the next. Although, strictly speaking, when the waves are traveling they are only carrying electromagnetic field energy and not heat. The heat is generated when the waves are absorbed by matter.
Conduction: When one hot object is in direct contact with another object, the heat can pass directly from the one object to the other through the touching surfaces.
Convection. When a fluid such as air or water touches a hot object, it can heat up and then move in bulk as a fluid, thereby carrying the heat quickly to new locations. Hot air rising is a common example of heat convection. For this reason, "heat" and "hot air" tend to be confused with each other.
Thermal radiation tends to spread out in all directions and not just up. When you are standing a few steps back from a large campfire, most of the heat you are receiving is being delivered to you via thermal radiation. Although the hot air of the campfire's flame travels mostly upwards, the thermal radiation has no problem coming out sideways and hitting you. The thermal radiation of a campfire spreads out in all directions, so that you can feel it heating you no matter where you stand (as long as you are close enough). Sunlight heating you up is another example of thermal radiation. The sunlight has no problem traveling out in all directions through space and coming down through earth's atmosphere to hit you.

AP writes: so what fallacy is committed when people say Heat rises when they should say "Hot Air" rises? I have 7 broad categories of fallacies.
I would say this fallacy falls more under mistake error rather than ambiguity with a touch of "non-sequitur" in that radiation as infrared heat energy does not rise, but that of "hot air" rises. And the proof is simple in that if Infrared (heat radiation rises) then so should visible light waves rise which none has ever been observed. And mistakes like these happen often in conversations.
This is what I mean that a fallacy can be classified in several groups simultaneously.
Alright, I need to revise my list of fallacies to include the Mistake-Error category. Like in math, if you add 2 + 3 and get something other than 5, you made a simple mistake of computation.
Ambiguity would be something in math like that of 3/2 +4. The ambiguity is the lack of parentheses used. Did he mean (3/2) + 4 or did he mean 3/(2+4).
So in my example above of "does heat rise" or does "hot air rise" is a fallacy of Mistake and not Ambiguity. So I need a 7th category of fallacies of Logic.
And to see if I have a proper list of fallacies I should run a math test on my final list for comprehensive and consistency.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Examples of Fallacy of Ambiguity -- lack of well defined or unclear parameters.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
One of the most egregious displays of ambiguity occur almost every day in the weather report of Wind direction.
Some say Westerly wind some say winds out of the west.
But what is needed whenever Wind is talked about are directions like this to be absolutely clear.
Wind blowing from West to East.
Or
Wind blowing from East to West.
Or
Wind blowing from North to South.
Or
Wind blowing from South to North.
This ambiguity is heightened even more severely when describing a Wind coming from Northwest blowing to Southeast, or say, coming from South East blowing Northwest.
Often there is ambiguity in Time statements. When someone says 8 O'clock, do they mean 8AM or 8PM.
In statements involving temperature, often we ignore mentioning what scale we are having our degrees, for in Celsius is far different from Fahrenheit.
In distance statements, I use the metric scale of meter, kilometer etc.
So Ambiguity is an easy fallacy to make, if not careful.
Small talk is actually useful as a means of socializing, so I would not count it as a logic fallacy.
So much language talk is ambiguous and that is a fallacy of logic.
Small talk can fit into the Non sequitur (does not follow) bracket. However, Ambiguity is distinct from non-sequitur.
Ambiguity fallacies on TV
-------------------------------
Now there is an entire philosophy devoted to language mistakes. It is called Analytic Philosophy and has names like Wittgenstein and Bertrand Russell and many others. One of the tenets of Analytic Philosophy is the theme that mistakes are made because of language use. And Wittgenstein gives a metaphor of this with the fly in the bottle. The fly is trapped (bad language) and bangs against the glass sides when all it needs to do is look straight up for a hole in the bottle and fly out.
On TV, I often run across such language mistakes, but I do not categorize them as being philosophy, no, I categorize them as being --- illogical ---.
Someone on TV with an advertisement to watch his show says this: "Understanding why we ..... understanding why we ......"
AP analysis: Nothing wrong there, but what if someone suggested "Understanding, the understanding of why we ..... Then another person chimes in and says "Understanding, the understanding of the understanding.... Sort of like a infinite chain downward. And this is really a philosophy error. To fix that error, I go to the only philosophy that I favor --- Pragmatism. For Pragmatism looking at Understanding the understanding of the understanding... would say that there is but one understanding and that is what future actions are enacted by the first understanding and the others are nonsense.

Dan pointing out the ambiguity of Univ Western Ontario with their sine and cosine as sinusoid waves when they are built from right triangles traversing the x-axis, which can only end up being semicircle waves, not sinusoid. And the ambiguity of wanting to make the x-axis angles when that is not allowed. Math is not bar graphs and pie-charts, for math is strictly and purely, the x-axis is the same in numbers as the y-axis.
What are synonyms for ambiguous?? How about unclear, dubious, obscure, scatterbrained, indeterminate. Reading Dan's above reminds me of all of those.
For example on the TV show "Wall Street Week" with David Westin, when he is not plugging for more AI hype makes the statement:
"More than what you need to know. It is what you need to think about".
So AP would ask David-- well David, if you know something, why would you need to think about it? Sounds very much redundant.
So this is a logic fallacy not of Non Sequitur but of Ambiguity. For what does it mean when we "know something"?
I suspect the correction to David Westin is this "More than what you need to know, but what you should focus upon and concentrate upon in the future".
Ambiguity riddles through our everyday speech and communications and is illogical.
Here is an example of a complicated complex ambiguity involving 2 USA presidents, Biden and Trump, and the main ambiguity is whether the stalker Kibo Parry is with the CIA and stalking AP for 30 years as to get rid of AP so that the CIA can use sci.math and sci.physics as coded messages into and out of Russia. That when AP uses sci.math and sci.physics for its original intent and purposes, sort of makes sci.math and sci.physics unappealing to the spies in Russia and spies in USA. For spies are wanting to make spy reports back home and AP just doing pure full science gets annoying to the spies.

Google newsgroups closed in Feb 2024 but thankfully they let my newsgroup go on.
I entered Usenet sci.physics and sci.math in 1993 and posted almost daily, thousands and thousands of posts until Google closed down in February 2024.
That would be 31 years of AP posts. If I posted 3 posts per day for 31 years that comes to the staggering figure of 3 x 365 =1,095 times 31 equals approximately 34,000 posts.
Somewhere along the line of all those years, I became fed up with attacking stalkers, around 2016 after my cancer surgery. And started to give the attackers a taste of their own medicine. I was using attackers to my benefit.
But I also came to a hypothesis over stalkers like Kibo Parry. I came to a hypothesis in early 2000, that the CIA was using Usenet, especially sci.math and sci.physics to communicate with spies in Russia and to try to flip Russians to spy for USA.
So there I was, using sci.physics and sci.math for purely science, but the CIA using sci.math and sci.physics as a means of talking in code with the West.
I reasoned this because there was Donald Trump posting to my threads in sci.math and sci.physics and later there was Joe Biden posting to my threads in sci.math and sci.physics. For me, this solidified my conjecture, that sci.math and sci.physics were used as some sort of espionage platform.
And I think the reason that Google exited Usenet, was mostly because of this duplicity, that spies across Russia and the West were using the science newsgroups.
Looking back to Feb2024 and now Feb2026, I am happy, because I wrote more science in this newsgroup than was possible in sci.math and sci.physics with all the cabal and noise.
Of course no-one at the CIA is ever going to admit the duplicity use of the newsgroups.
And perhaps, if Kibo Parry had just done his cia tasks and never attacked posters doing science, that Usenet may still be up and running with Google running it.
As far as I am concerned, the CIA destroyed sci.math and sci.physics. I can detect it from Joe Biden's posts.

Mr. Plutonium,
I had spoken to the good folks at Google that you had agreed to stop
spamming and you should be allowed to do whatever you wanted in your own
group. You even stated you would restrict your postings to there. They
reluctantly agreed with me and unrestricted your account, as you
noticed. However, you immediately started spamming again and you did not
restrict your spam to your own group. You have embarrassed me in front
of the good folks at Google as well as here. The Google people told me
"I told you so!" and I had no answer for them. They are on the verge of
deleting your account outright. Please behave yourself to avoid this. I
have more important things to worry about, as you may know, Russia has
started interfering with our drones.
Regards,
Joe
--- end quoting Pres.Biden March 2023 post ---
The best Occam's Razor explanation for why Joe Biden and Donald Trump became involved with AP posts to science, is the explanation that CIA was using sci.math and sci.physics to communicate spies with spies in Russia. And that sadly Kibo Parry being dumb chose to attack AP for which AP then upset the coded messages. Finally Google was brought in to tear down the Google Usenet.
Of course Old Usenet is still up and running, but it has a minuscule number of followers and likely doing spying and informing the West of what is going on in Russia.

I explain it as that AP pure science adventure was seemingly interfering with spies in Russia and spies in USA wanting sci.math and sci.physics for nefarious reasons and not for math or physics.
--------------------------------------------------
Examples of Fallacy of Non-Sequitur.
--------------------------------------------------
This book has been my most grueling science book to ever write. Partly because I revise the whole of the science of Logic. But partly because writing a Logic textbook should be written ------ Logically------. And that is an extremely difficult task, considering most people have little of a logical mind to start with. For example: 51% of Americans voted for a 6 times bankrupt loser Donald Trump in the last election. What were they thinking? Were they thinking that a 6 times bankrupt loser can make America strong and great, a loser that thinks Ukraine started the war and thinks Russia is a friend to the USA.
I want my Logic textbooks be mandatory to all hopeful scientists in college and university, but considering the bigger picture. Perhaps Logic should be taught in High School so that America, never again votes for a 6 times bankrupt loser that ruins the USA.
Copi gives his first example of "non sequitur" on page 233.
So Copi, 1972, Introduction to Logic, 4th edition does not give non-sequitur as a fallacy. I suppose that "Affirming the Consequent" on page 233 is the closest he gets to the fallacy of Non-Sequitur. Copi gives the example of this.
If Bacon wrote Hamlet, then Bacon was a great writer.
Bacon was a great writer.
Therefore, Bacon wrote Hamlet.
The reason I include as fallacy that of Non-Sequitur which means--- that which does not follow from previous ideas--- is that it is one of the very most common errors or fallacy in Logic. The world cogent in thought is opposite to a scatterbrained in thought.
The example I liked to use when in studying Logic at University Cincinnati from 1968-72 is this example.
Shopper: I like to go to the city a long distance away to shop because the bread is a dollar cheaper and the milk is a dollar cheaper than go to the grocery store nearby.
AP: But the cost of gasoline more than makes up for the cheaper price.
For AP, Non-Sequitur is a flaw in thinking. And you find Non-Sequitur even in phrases. You do not need entire arguments to have a non-sequitur fallacy. Example: "I feel I do not have enough sleep, so I will eat apple-sauce for dinner".
Non Sequitur means literally "does not follow". Logic is stepwise deduction and reason. One step should come out and follow from previous steps to a conclusion.
The opposite of "following steps of reason" is being scatterbrained and unreasonable.
Here is an example of Dan Christensen fumbling with the most simple of logic reasoning, and yet Canada keeps allowing this misfit to dig deeper into logic.
The non-sequitur (does not follow) Dan Christensen always chokes up when it comes to logic or even just plain commonsense with his 2 OR 1 = 3 and his AND as subtraction.
In sci.math.

I classify Dan Christensen's mistake as being non-sequitur, but someone else may say it is more of mistake-error-calculation.
Apparently Dan Christensen never took calculus or flunked it with this statement in sci.math or sci.physics.

AP gives the example of Rensselaer Polytechnic from the loudmouth perpetual stalker James Kibo Parry who stalked AP for 30 years in sci.math, sci.physics and his usual posts were filled with "Non Sequitur".
I asked Kibo Parry why RPI could not weigh the mass of hydrogen compared to oxygen in water electrolysis? For it is non-sequitur to look at just volume and then assume the mass follows volume. AP often wrote in sci.math and sci.physics-- why stop at volume for the next logical sequitur step is actually weigh the mass of hydrogen compared to oxygen and see if the mass agrees with volume.
Kibo with his scatter brain could never comply. And probably because, well, he claims to be an engineer, yet fails at even doing a proper correct percentage problem, claiming that 938 is 12% short of 945.

AP writes:: So, well, after 30 years of Non Sequitur stalk posts by Rensselaer 's Kibo Parry and his dozens of fake names-- the Question is still out and in the Open. Does Rensselaer have at least one logical minded professor of physics, who carries out a water electrolysis that does not end with a volume look and glance, but goes that Extra One Step Forward in Logic, and weighs the mass of hydrogen compared to oxygen, for AP believes the true formula of water is H4O and not H2O.
Take for example page 159 as Dr. Stillwell talks of calculus.
--- quoting page 159 Mathematics and its History ---
The rules for differentiation are still complete, given a sensible set of operations for constructing functions, but the rules for integration are pathetically incomplete. They do not suffice to integrate simple algebraic functions like Sqrt(1+x^2), or even rational functions with undetermined constants like 1/(x^5-x-A). Moreover, it is only in recent decades that we have been able to tell which algebraic functions are integrable by our rules.
--- end quoting page 159 Mathematics and its History ---
So if Dr. Stillwell had spent more time studying Logic to learn how to think straight and think clearly, he may have turned out to be a good mathematician instead of a failed crank. For John, with Logic, you may have realized what AP realized back in 1968 sitting in a calculus classroom as student at University of Cincinnati, that if you made the Polynomial the only valid function in all of mathematics thus reducing integration to add 1 to exponent and differentiation to subtract 1 from exponent that Calculus today would be easy as cherry pie and milk.
And when a math crank ponders trifles like Sqrt(1+x^2), you tell the crank Dr. Stillwell, have you ever heard of Lagrange Interpolation??? That your silly Sqrt(1+x^2) is not a function of math at all, and what interval do you want to transform it into a polynomial on the 1st Quadrant Only in graphing???
Lagrange transform goes like this:: Polynomial Transformation Generator tool: The Polynomial Generator is this tool: [omitted due to space]
Now, the 2nd most important proof in all of geometry is the proof that the formula of a straight line is that of a polynomial function that is Y--> mX + b. And it is this formula that math students must learn and hopefully master to make their geometry course a worthwhile experience in science.
I am not certain that the below picture diagram is the state-of-the-art on Y--> mX + b for first time learners. I am, though, absolutely sure that this diagram is what is needed to teach Calculus.

Examples of Fallacy of Ad Hominem (attack the person rather than the gist of the argument).

And there was MIT on a roll in the past decade with invention of the Ion Thruster to help all of humanity and all of life on Earth get to Europa in the next 1,000 years to build a permanent colony since our Sun has gone Red Giant phase for stars shine not from fusion but from Faraday law. Yet, as MIT gifts the world with Ion Thruster space ship propulsion, we have the negativism of a MIT worthless crank crackpot of science in the form of Gilbert Strang and his moron partner Davide Cavion in Trinity College Dublin.
In my opinion, Gilbert Strang should never have been in science at all, in the first place. He surely fails the Mullenweg+ Myers TEST, for Strang can never admit he was wrong that slant cut of cone is Oval, never ellipse. But just look at the mind wreck of Strang's Calculus book where on page 360, his pea-brain sets out to define the Complex number, not realizing, that throughout his book from page 1 to 360 he forgets to define--- say Gilbert--- what the hell are the numbers you use from page 1 up to page 360????? Gilbert Strang and Davide Cavion are classic examples of two people who should never be in science and have big loud mouthes that they commit the fallacy of both Non-Sequitur plus Ad Hominem. Failures of science never have any contribution to science, no, they spend all their energy in trying to dis those that succeed in science.
A pity, that MIT gives us the Ion Thruster for better spaceship travel, while parallel, we have Strang pulling down MIT into a gutter-sewer.

Examples of Fallacy of Mis-identification.
------------------------------------------------------
This category of Logic Fallacies is perhaps the single most important category of all logic fallacies, considering that once you make a mistake of Mis-Identity in physics, it can hold you up for a 1,000 years in getting to Europa when we need to make a permanent colony on Europa as our Sun has gone Red Giant. In 1897 Thomson thought he found the Atom's electron of the 0.5MeV particle. No, he found the Dirac magnetic monopole, the unit of electric current. The true electron of Atoms is the Muon stuck inside a proton torus and doing the Faraday law with the proton. When you carry stupid false ideas for 2025-1897= 128 years. It may cause the extinction of all life on Earth and send humanity into oblivion as the Sun broils and swallows up Earth. We cannot afford false physics and survive into the future. Mis-identity mistakes can be so so debilitating and be the ruin of all life on Earth.
When Thomson in 1897 via experiments found a particle of 0.5MeV which he and the entire physics community would identify as the "Atom's electrons" never had the Logical stamina and his successors from 1897 to 2025, never had the logical brains to question that identification.
For Pierre Curie and Paul Dirac were searching for the Magnetic Monopole. Yet no physicist from 1897 to 2025, except AP, had the logical brains to say--- Stop--- Thomson found the magnetic monopole and the true electron of Atoms was the muon at 105 MeV.
Because of that mis-identification, Physics is now stagnant and stupid, for when we realize the true electron of atoms is the muon, then the proton is the coil in Faraday law of 840MeV with muon inside thrusting through the proton torus coil and producing energy in electrical form.
That is why the Sun spews out more energy every year going forward and has started to go Red Giant phase. Unless physicists unscrew through stupidity head of how stars shine from Faraday law, not fusion, then planet Earth and all its life will be destroyed, go extinct and go into oblivion if we do not make Europa our new home in time.
Closer to home here in the USA, a misidentity mistake can easily ruin an entire country like the USA. Donald Trump misidentifies Ukraine as starting a war with Russia. Trump misidentifies Putin in Russia as a friend. And Trump can make a disastrous misidentity should Russia launch ICBMs that reach USA in 1/2 hour or 15 minutes and vaporizes the USA into a radioactive dust pile, all because Trump misidentifies the launch as being some friendly exercise.
Far and away, misidentification can be the fallacy that is ruinous.
Does math have a fallacy of Misidentity as critical as Physics has one???? Well, not as important as physics, but all math professors in the world at this moment, all of them are too stupid to realize they mis-identified the slant cut of cone is actually a Oval, and not a ellipse, for a cone has 1 axes of symmetry. The slant cut of cylinder with its 2 axes of symmetry gives the ellipse, but not a cone. So the ellipse is Not a Conic Section, never was, never will be.
Yes, yes indeed the greatest logic fallacy in Mathematics is also a MisIdentification just as the biggest fallacy in Physics is mis-identification.
In Mathematics, they mis-identified the true numbers that compose math. They were given a hint in year 1900 when Max Planck started the Quantum Mechanics Revolution by saying Physics is discrete-- for quantum means discrete.
But instead of looking at physics, the clowns of mathematics dug deeper into continuum with the senseless Continuum Hypothesis of Cohen.
When physics started quantum mechanics, all in mathematics should have looked up and payed attention to physics and ask the question, do we have the true numbers of mathematics for the Reals are a sack of cobbled together garbage to attain continuum when no continuum exists. Mathematicians mis-identified the true numbers of mathematics for they are the Decimal Grid Numbers with holes and empty space between one number and the next number.
Now some people are going to think this fallacy is seldom committed. However, it is a very frequent occurring fallacy. And it is a major cause of Science Failure. This fallacy holds back Humanity for centuries whenever it is made. The fallacies of non-sequitur, ad hominem, and ambiguity have minor effects on Human Society. But when the fallacy is MisIdentification in science, it can paralyze human society, even extinct it.
When Thomson misidentified the Atom's true electron by calling the 0.5MeV particle the electron when in truth, the Muon, stuck inside a 840MeV proton torus is the true electron of Atoms, that misidentification had held Human Society back ever since 1897. And the fact that Sun and Stars shine because of Faraday law-- the muon thrusting through proton torus, is going to cause the extinction of Humanity, if it does not wake up soon to the true electron-- muon, for we need to make a permanent colony on Europa in the next 1,000 years to keep from going extinct for the Sun has entered Red Giant Phase.
Another misidentification is Rutherford, Bohr, Geiger, Marsden in the gold leaf experiment, thinking they identified a nucleus in Atoms in early 1900's, but what they really identified in Atoms is the muon inside a proton torus as the bounced back alpha particles have ____more speed coming out___ than going in.
A misidentification in Math is the sine and cosine are semicircle waves, not sinusoid. Another misidentification is the slant cut of cone is a Oval, not ellipse for you need a cylinder with 2 axes of symmetry to yield a slant cut as ellipse. Another misidentification is the true numbers of math are Decimal Grid Numbers not the stupid Reals. Another misidentification is the derivative of calculus is not the tangent to a point on a graph curve but is what actually connects one point of the function graph to the next point of function graph.
So many of the major important mistakes of Science are because of Mis-Identification. Perhaps that is because we have so many "preconceptions" of what the answer should be, that we turn our logical brains into "off mode" and conclude the answer is our biased preconceived ideas. Rutherford, Bohr, Geiger, Marsden thought the atom should be a miniature Solar System, when in reality, the Atom is a proton torus with muon inside doing the Faraday law and neutrons surround the proton torus to storage the electricity produced by Faraday law.
When we make mistakes with MisIdentification, it can easily turn into being a major mistake.

Why Volney?? Because they are so sloppy and slipshod in Physics experiment of Water Electrolysis, stopping and ceasing the experiment before weighing the mass of the hydrogen compared to mass of oxygen. Is it that they are stupid silly thinking volume and mass are the same. For AP needs to prove decisively, if Water is really H4O or H2O. And of course, this experiment would destroy the Standard Model-- that post-diction theory of physics that never gave a single prediction in all of its tenure.
Here is a case of MisIdentification of the correct formula for water--- H4O, not H2O.
Surely they knew the Quartz Crystal Microbalance had been around since 1960s to weigh hydrogen versus oxygen in water electrolysis. Or is that tougher of a science for Berkeley than nucleosynthesis of plutonium and curium???
Or is it because they cannot admit the truth of math geometry that slant cut of cone is oval, not ellipse for you need the symmetry of slant cut of cylinder to yield a ellipse.
UC Berkeley, the place where plutonium was discovered by Seaborg et al, deserves a separate listing, as a top of tops school in science.
Mark Barton is everyone at UC Berkeley raving nutters for they still preach slant cut of cone is ellipse when in truth it is a Oval. No wonder no-one at Berkeley, least of all Kolker or Muller have the logical marbles to weigh the mass of oxygen versus hydrogen in water electrolysis, no, they skip and hop back to the lounge for coffee and donuts after looking at volume, never able to weigh the mass, like a complete-scientist.
Robert J. Kolker and Richard A. Muller Berkeley failing in all facets of science--- failures in science-- so stupid they cannot even admit slant cut of cone is Oval, not ellipse.
1) Too stupid to question if Thomson found Dirac's magnetic monopole and not the electron of atoms.
2) Too stupid to realize that in the Rutherford,Geiger, Marsden Experiment when you have increase in velocity of bounce back alpha particles means head on collision with a larger proton torus, hence, the interior of gold atoms are toruses, no nucleus.
3) Too stupid in logic to understand subatomic particles have jobs and tasks to do, not sit around on beaches sipping lemonade what Old Physics says. The proton is a 8 ring torus with muon as electron inside doing the Faraday law producing new electricity.
4) Too stupid to understand stars and our Sun shine not from fusion but from Faraday law of each and every atom inside that star.
5) think a slant cut in single cone is a ellipse when it is proven to be a Oval, never the ellipse. For the cone and oval have 1 axis of symmetry, while ellipse has 2.
6) think Boole logic is correct with AND truth table being TFFF when it really is TTTF in order to avoid 2 OR 1 =3 with AND as subtraction.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Examples of Fallacy Existence-Nonexistence for the derivative is the existential quantifier-- the "assumed to exist" fallacy.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AP's opinion answer why no-one in physics or chemistry is smart enough to go the extra distance and actually weigh the mass of hydrogen compared to oxygen in water electrolysis. Instead they all look at the volume and simply assume it says H2O when it could say H4O if they went the extra distance to weighing the mass. So is there a fallacy of logic of sheer crass laziness. Everyone bolting to the science lounge for coffee, cake, donuts rather than being the 100% scientist to see if hydrogen converts its proton+muon inside to becoming a neutron to the other hydrogen H and thus water is really H4O. For a proton+muon inside by itself has no neutron capacitor to storage its electricity produced in the Faraday law. This is why H alone as an atom is hard to find for it has no neutron. Deuterium is a full hydrogen atom and so is H2 is a hydrogen atom, more than it is a molecule, for one of the H's converts to being a neutron for the other proton+muon inside.
So the fallacy as far as I can see is a fallacy of being lazy. But there is no logic fallacy of being lazy. So the next best fallacy in my opinion is that physicists and chemists assume that volume equals mass, when that is such an awful poor assumption, considering hydrogen is unique in many ways. Making an assumption that is not warranted is committing the fallacy of 5) Mistakes in Existence-Nonexistence for the derivative is the existential quantifier-- the assumed to exist fallacy.

Is it that they are stupid silly thinking volume and mass are the same. For AP needs to prove decisively, if Water is really H4O or H2O. And of course, this experiment would destroy the Standard Model-- that post-diction theory of physics that never gave a single prediction in all of its tenure.
Surely they knew the Quartz Crystal Microbalance had been around since 1960s to weigh hydrogen versus oxygen in water electrolysis. Or is that tougher of a science for Berkeley than nucleosynthesis of plutonium and curium???
Or is it because they cannot admit the truth of math geometry that slant cut of cone is oval, not ellipse for you need the symmetry of slant cut of cylinder to yield a ellipse.
UC Berkeley, the place where plutonium was discovered by Seaborg et al, deserves a separate listing, as a top of tops school in science.
Mark Barton is everyone at UC Berkeley raving nutters for they still preach slant cut of cone is ellipse when in truth it is a Oval. No wonder no-one at Berkeley, least of all Kolker or Muller have the logical marbles to weigh the mass of oxygen versus hydrogen in water electrolysis, no, they skip and hop back to the lounge for coffee and donuts after looking at volume, never able to weigh the mass, like a complete-scientist.

Examples of Fallacy in Universal for the integral is the universal quantifier-- the giver of consistency and completeness.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AP's example of the Universal Quantifier Logic Fallacy involves whether a scientist with a degree is able to understand, comprehend what a Law of Physics is all about. Or, are they so dumb that they cannot tell apart a Law from a "rule".
The AP proof that the Universe is a single big atom of Plutonium is based on the idea that a Law of Physics is Universal. So when Feynman in his Lectures on Physics says "All things are made up of Atoms" as the Atomic Theory. Well, that cannot be a Universal theory of Physics unless the Universe itself is one big atom. The greatest theory in all of Physics must have the Universe be a single big atom of Plutonium, otherwise it is a rule that works sometimes but not all the time.
I outlined the Atomic theory earlier in this textbook. Noting that the Universe cannot be a molecule, but a single big atom.
The greatest Logic Argument of all time is the Atomic theory proving the Universe is a single big atom of Plutonium.
Univ Houston Matt Mullenweg & U.Minnesota PZ Myers Universal TEST of PhD's being null and void.
And Matt Mullenweg, PZ Myers with their cheap low class Wordpress smear platform highlights the fact that Matt and PZ Myers are totally ignorant of Physics, Logic and how to put together an idea of science. And that Mullenweg Wordpress & Myers pharyngula blog present a --- universal methodology of null and voiding all scientists of their degree in science on a TEST.

Pseudoscientists PZ Myers and Matt Mullenweg failed math and logic for their small minds cannot even see that a slant cut of cone is Oval, never ellipse for you need the symmetry of a cylinder to obtain a ellipse slant cut which points out the fact that Myers and Mullenweg have no native science intelligence but all of which is memorized from book reading for they have no logical marbles in their brain cap to reason the truth of anything in the world. And it is a shame that kooks of science like Myers and Mullenweg have teaching roles when they fail science outright.
No wonder no-one at University Minnesota Morris UMM could ever do a proper logical Water Electrolysis by not stopping at looking at volume of hydrogen and compare to oxygen but actually getting out the weighing scale. No, when you have kook science brains like Myers and Mullenweg, you hop skip and jump to the coffee lounge once you look at volume, too stupid to weigh.
I do not know, does University Minnesota Morris UMM, even have a quartz microbalance scale, and would PZ Myers ever know how to do Water Electrolysis, for it appears to me all that PZ Myers can do is --- if you place a lens in each of his ears-- makes a fine telescope.
Matt Mullenweg's Univ.Houston science and math-- says nothing but spherical bullshit--
Why Matt?? Is it because no-one at UH can admit slant cut of cone is oval, not ellipse. And none can admit polynomial is the only valid function reducing calculus to add or subtract 1 from exponent and thus calculus supereasy. But worst of all, none can admit 9 x muon rest mass equals neutron rest mass within sigma error raising the question that the true electron of atoms is the muon, not the Dirac magnetic monopole = 0.5MeV.

Matt Mullenweg asks Caltech why they are so dumb in physics as to bypass the question of which is the atom's true electron??? That 0.5MeV particle or the muon which makes a-lot more sense that the muon is the Atom's true electron!!!!

Robert J. Kolker and Richard A. Muller Berkeley failing in all facets of science--- failures in science-- so stupid they cannot even admit slant cut of cone is Oval, not ellipse.
No-one in Old Math could do a geometry proof of Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. This is a fine example of Fallacy of Universal quantifier. Because without consistency and completeness there is no universal quantification.
In calculus, polynomials are the only valid functions.
TEACHING TRUE MATHEMATICS (textbook in the making-- journal textbook): journal-textbook for ages 5 to 18, Volume 1; and ages 19 to 26, Volume 2
by Archimedes Plutonium (Author)
This is the one textbook in two volumes that carries every person through all his/her math education needs, 5 year old to 26 year old through all of mathematics that is needed to do science. Every other math book is incidental to this one. And the student needs this math book for all their math and science needs. A one-size-fits-all for mathematics study.
I call it a journal-textbook because Internet offers me the ability to edit overnight, and to change the text, almost continuously. A unique first in education textbooks-- continual overnight editing.
What prompted me to write this textbook is that the Old Math is too much filled with error, mistakes and just sheer nonsense. In the early 2000s I wrote about 5 editions of Correcting Math textbooks and about 9 editions of True Calculus, but then I got so fed up and tired with all the mistakes of Old Math, that I decided the best route to go is throw out all of Old Math and start anew.
22) How Logic can help you live a better life.
One can describe the living of a life as one long chain of solving problems. Logic can help us to solve problems, but also help us to avoid getting into a problem situation.
Archimedes Plutonium Dec 5, 2025, 7:53:51 PM to Plutonium Atom Universe newsgroup.
I had a terrible miserable day today, Fri 5Dec and let me recount the horrible problem.
So I was at the Bank depositing a check, and the teller asked for my credit card to pull up the account. And transaction over with; I wanted to speak to someone else.
I departed the bank and spent time with other business, finally at the grocery store before heading for home.
There I was at the checkout and usually pay by credit card. Pulled out my wallet and no credit card in the pocket I usually keep it.
PANIC, PANIC Attack hit me.
My mind last recalled the clerk at bank needed it. So fast, pay for the groceries and I have 6 minutes to get back to the Bank and enquire, before the bank closes. Will I have to null and void the card????
I managed to get to the Bank in time, all under this Panic Attack, and find no credit card inside. Then it hits me, I may have slipped the card into my briefcase before talking with the banker about some other issue.
Any day that I lose a credit card, or a wallet, is a Panic Royale. Even if I lose a pair of glasses, or especially keys causes Panic.
And in my life I built up a system of where---- Constant Good Rules of Behavior to avoid Panic Attacks.
Apparently I had not built a Good Rule for when I give my credit card to a clerk.
Good Rule of Behavior to Add to my Inventory
---------------------------------------------------------
Whenever giving my credit card to someone else. Do not wait for the end of the transaction for there can be many many side show distractions before getting my card back--- to receive card and receipt back. No, before the transaction is complete, insist on having the credit card back, and where I slip it back inside its pocket in my wallet.
So this rule requires me to postpone all interaction, until the card is safely back inside the wallet. I simply say to the clerk or teller-- are you finished with the cards (sometimes the drivers license)?????
If I had had such a Rule before today, I would not have __not gone into a Panic Attack__ and ruined the day.
Funny, when I was young I kept losing expensive pens, and then I had the Rule built that my pen must be clipped to the wallet I carry, and ever since, I have not lost my pen.
Another rule I built goes back to when I was real young in my teenager years. My father and I were on vacation and unfortunately locked the car with keys inside. We had to call for a locksmith. From that experience, I built the Rule that always have an extra key inside the wallet. For chances are, that you will not lock the car keys and the wallet both at the same time inside the car. And it worked several times in the past where the wallet comes to the rescue.
I still have not found a good rule for _____not losing my glasses_____. But working on it.
So yes, during my life, I built up these rules to keep me out of trouble. Especially on losing wallet, credit cards, drivers license, Driving a car, losing keys, losing tools etc.
But still I manage to lose things, even momentarily.
For my wallet--- the rule is never ever set the wallet down. Always have the wallet in my pocket or in my hands, a secure pocket for one time I was pickpocketed, and now my wallet is always in a secure pocket-- tight or velcro latch. If not in pocket, it can be in hand, but nowhere else.
Now for my credit card or drivers license--- If I give either one to someone such as a clerk-- the focus of attention will be not the transaction but rather insisting the clerk return the card before completing transaction and to where I put the card back into my wallet.
I have a unique rule for tools. Often I need multiple tools for a job, and so I count the tools before the job, and count them after the job. If I lose a tool, my rule is that I have to buy a new one the next time I go to the store. This rule makes it painful to lose a tool as I have to fork over money to replace the lost tool. When young I would have multiple tools at a work site and throw them down after finished with a tool, and often forget I had thrown them down, ending up as losing or rusted tool.
Life in General is nothing but a Series of solving problems, and a good life is one in which, I do not add more problems due to my careless behavior.
Rules for driving especially important as you can be killed or crippled
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Speaking of Rules for driving. When I grew up as a driver in the 1970s onward, traffic was not much of a problem, but as more traffic increased through the decades, driving became more and more scary, especially on Expressways.
A recent addition to my Rules on Driving involves changing lanes on the expressway. I cannot think of a more horrifying problem in driving ---- you are on a expressway near a big city and it is rush hour to get to work and your exit is one or two exits ahead-- but traffic is stopped and long lines. And you are in the wrong lane. Do you attempt to switch lanes or miss your exit????
My rule here is stay in your lane and if necessary take the wrong exit.
An accident on the Expressway easily can kill you or cripple you for life.
In my entire life, I had but one accident. A year or two after getting a drivers license I had an accident at a stop sign where I ran into the rear of a car and dented their fender. No bodily injury, but enough to tell me to start making rules on driving. Ever since then, I was accident free. The key rule in driving is drive --- Slow and drive defensively. Aggressive driving will increase the chances of accident.
Lane changing and speeding is for those who will be in an accident.
I must comment on the fact that I own an electric car hybrid. And they are easy to speed in for they make no noise as you accelerate. Electric vehicles have an easy time of acceleration as compared to the gasoline powered engine, and so they take some time to adjust to.

Looking for a College or University press to hardcover publish all 366+ AP books of science, likely to become 500-600 maybe even 700 books by the time I die. E-books are too prone to unbalanced-unhinged censor-editors, who can easily make your books vanish by pulling a switch. Science should never have gatekeepers, who thwart access to true science.
