Logic

This evening we played catch up with some things that are a little more tedious than I like but important. If we don't cover them they end up causing confusion later so there is a good reason they are in the book and need to be discussed. Since we went pretty fast, if you have questions on particular topics please see if a closer reading of the book and the relevant exercises helps or stop by and we can go over them. But at a rather hectic pace we went through chapters one, two and almost finished three. My syllabus definitely needs work since it lists Fallacies as chapter 2 but that is the topic for chapter 4 and we really need to get started on syllogisms, so next class we will split the time between fallacies and categorical statements. We have already touched on them since they seem so important to me. Hopefully, this will all come together nicely as we move on. The quiz question was in preparation for our discussion of fallacies and that was to send me your favorite joke - or if not your favorite, at least a joke you think funny. It would be best if you could send the link of the comedian who does the joke.
