Sorry: no time to write a journal entry right now. I just finished writing a 1700+ word paper (cut down from nearly 2000 words) about logical fallacies in business. After many hours of research, and honest attempts to provide clear, dispassionate examples of classic logical fallacies, I ended up with a paper that was largely a rant about the illogic of John's former employer. A sample:
1. John (or Fred) disagrees with me about the need for editing.
2. Therefore, he is insubordinate and should be fired.
This is a combination of the far-fetched hypothesis and the Ad hominem fallacy.
I'll try to write something more interesting after class tonight. However, I make no promise about not ranting.
