Hardly surprising, because that sentence says nothing. The author was
confusing statement with record.
>That was what I was trying to clarify.
And instead further confused the issue.
>A continuation is not a new statement.
Then it's a good thing that I never claimed that it was. A record is
not necessarily a statement, and vice versa. The two fail to be
synonymous precisely in the case where there is a continuation line,
in which case the statement comprises multiple records.
