Hi R.E. - I don't know if that was meant to be an answer to me, but if it was, I don't see how it covers it... sorry, maybe I'm being obtuse.
The form of what the OP has posted, seems to me to be: (m&v n&u) y This seems to reduce to: (m&v) ^:y (n&u y) OK, but can't see which part of the docs clarifies that. On 3 May 2014 12:19, R.E.
