 As discussed on [http://groups.google.com/group/sage-
 devel/t/5d9c32390ffe3c96 sage-devel] it could be good to have an "Unkown"
 value in sage which semantic is a truth value. Here are the intended truth
 table:
 {{{
       and             or
     F  U  T         F  U  T
  F [F, F, F]     F [F, U, T]
  U [F, U, U]     U [U, U, T]
  T [F, U, T]     T [T, T, T]
 }}}
 Unfortunately, without [http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0335/ PEP 335],
 there is no way to achieve this with python's "and" and "or".
