But this as usual misses the point. Sure someone can balk at a valid 
argument with an "is" conclusion, just as they can at one with a "ought" 
conclusion. 
But there are an infinite number of valid arguments with an "is" 
conclusion & "is" premises, but the question remains whether there are 
any valid arguments with an "ought" conclusion & only "is" premises.
