If you assert "20% of X is       > P," then a logical inference is that "80% of X is not-P."              No, it isn't. If I were to say that 20% of cars are not red, that       doesn't mean that 80% are. I originally said that I know that a full 20%       of a class cannot consist of geniuses, that doesn't mean the other 80%       does either.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
