Date: Sun, 1 Feb 1998 10:37:02 -0500 From: Eric Yost <103423.421-AT-CompuServe.COM> Subject: PLC: Name That Fallacy! Speaking of non sequitors and other errors, what's this one? In junior high school geometry class, my teacher asked: "Eric, please write the proof of this theorem on the blackboard." I responded: (1) You've asked me to write the proof of this theorem on the blackboard. (2) Therefore there must be a proof of this theorem. (3) Therefore the theorem is true. --- from list phillitcrit-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
