Says Beck: "We are stomping all over the Pilgrims this holiday" but they would be "smacking us upside the head with those big funny shaped hats that they used to wear." Bring it on Pilgrims!

Missing Shades of Grue
rules amended, inferences rejected
Rudy Garns
philosopher, educator, citizen
"...rules and particular inferences alike are justified by being brought into agreement with each other. A rule is ammended if it yields an inference we are unwilling to accept; an inference is rejected if it violates a rule we are unwilling to amend. The process of justification is the delicate one of making mutual adjustments between rules and accepted inferences...." (Nelson Goodman, Fact, Fiction and Forecast)
