Terminology

[Dale Miller]

I hope, since this is not about "USS", that I won't be moderated on  
this. I wish to reply to a question John McKown raised on 18 Nov :"And  
what is the proper word for the PL/1 "not" sign' ? (x'00AC' in  
Unicode). It is a standard operator in formal mathematical language,  
AFAIK almost universally used to indicate logical negation in an  
expression, and normally called the "negation symbol", but informally  
called the "not sign".
