“I’ve pinged several others on this thread, so they won’t waste their time either if your answer is that you really don’t see a difference between the two.”
Thanks, but I wasted my time on edge919’s deluded misreading of that very quote some time ago. In one part I wrote:
“How could you possibly think that you can just drop the ‘neither... nor’? When you delete a negation you get the opposite of what the claim actually asserted. Well, normally you would get the opposite; in this case you were so clueless as to the proposition being negated that what you got was hash.”
He’s not only deluded about WKA, he also has a very bizarre reading of Minor vs. Happersett. I think he must have a reading comprehension problem.
Sorry, but I’ve explained in detail why both you and sometime lurker don’t have a logical point. You need more than just personal insults such as “deluded misreading” to fall back on. Five consecutive consecutive paragraphs from the WKA decision support the point I’ve made. A “neither” and “nor” that are not even taken in full context of the quote in one paragraph does not change that.
