	Well, Jeff's logic *is* incorrect, and Robert is right, and this
can be shown without resorting to theology...

	I would like to cite that unamed middle-eastern philosopher who
appears on side 1 of "Monty Python & The Holy Grail", and who patiently
explains to us that "Elmer Cogan is dead; but only some of the class of
dead people are Elmer Cogan", thus neatly demonstrating non-conversion
of a proposition.

	Q.E.D.
