I think everybody will agree with you that a statement of type "silicone is silicone" is correct. But the statement "neither it is oil" is correct, only if you with siliconE understand silicon.

Yes I was, thanks for clearing that up :-). I've been aware that I didn't know whether to spell it with the 'e', but I didn't think both versions are correct and mean very different things. But I claim the statement is correct for both versions, except the paper/book analogy (which was terrible anyway...). Meant to just say silicon(e) is not one fixed product but comes in many different ways... Cheers! Stefan --- In [email protected], Rune Wesström <rune.
