FINALLY, this provides an angle where you guys can understand what I mean by "logic" =) I use logic as a computational structure to build mental models, eg, by stating relations among entities. Some of the logic statements may appear to be similar to everyday, conversational statements. But the actual KR can be *much* richer than conversational statements.
