For example: - Collect observations and apply some sort of measurement to them. - Describe a hypothesis about the conditions leading to the measurable observations. - Describe (in relation to the hypothesis) a course of action by which the measurable outcomes could be changed, both positively and negatively, to either prove or disprove the hypothesis. - After implementing the course of action, continue to collect observations and apply the prior measurements to them, including both confirmatory and disconfirmatory observations. - Determine if the course of action succeeded or failed in changing the measureable observations, thus either confirming or disconfirming the hypothesis. Of course, that's just one approach that "logic" might use. Do you feel the approach to the COC has been "logical" in that sense? If not in that sense, then in what other sense do you feel it has been "logical" ? -- Paul M.
