~> EC> She did not say that ALL DVDs cannot ~> EC> be erased. There do exist DVDs that cannot be erased, ~> EC> however. ~> She said DVD's cannot be erased. Not some DVDs, not some ~> catagory of DVDs. That was established some time back. She did not say "some" and she did not say "all." You imported the "all." ~> For a negative to be true in such a case it must be true for all ~> elements of the set. If it is made about "all elements of the set." You are spinning your wheels in your silly effort to come up with some way to quibble with her comment. And even WITHIN your quibble you are not doing it well, since your quibble also requires you to put dissimilar items (pre-pressed DVDs, DVD-Rs, and DVD-RWs) into the SAME "set" rather than different "sets." As Ross pointed out some time back, the usual meaning of "DVD" is the pre-pressed and uneraseable disk that one buys or rents with data already on it. DVD-RWs are significantly different from them. So what you have been trumpeting for so long as her making an mistake may have simply been the two of you using a different vocabulary. Which makes all your puffing just a semantics game by you. That is fundamentally different from your attempt to defend the placement of Duluth in the wrong state! --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.0pr5a* Origin: FidoTel & QWK on the Web! www.fidotel.com (1:124/311) SEEN-BY: 10/1 3 34/999 120/228 123/500 140/1 226/0 249/303 250/306 261/20 38 SEEN-BY: 261/100 1381 1404 1406 1418 266/1413 280/1027 320/119 396/45 633/260 SEEN-BY: 633/267 712/848 801/161 189 2222/700 2320/100 105 2905/0 @PATH: 124/311 140/1 261/38 633/260 267 |
