When I Studied How To Think In School, I Was Taught That The First Rule Of Logic Was That A Thing Cannot Both Be And Not Be At The Same Time And In The Same Respect. That Last Note, “in The Same Respect,” Says A Lot. As Soon As You Change The Frame Of Reference, You’ve Changed The Truthiness Of A Once Immutable Fact.
