Logic is just a branch of mathematics which studies
discourse and their interpretation.

Most discourses are sequential but the thinking behind
does not need to be sequential. The semantics are
in general not sequential.

Recall I have until here give only an informal (although
persuasive IMO) argument showing that if we can survive
with a digitale brain then physics transform itself
into a branch of machine psychology.
UDA = UDA

And currently, I have just proposed to some to explain
the technical part of my thesis where I will explicitely
show how quantum logic in the discourse of the introspective
UTM. I' dont feel myself searching in a space.

It is true that logic is poorly taught. But then that is
the reason why I propose to take it at the beginning.
Of course that demand some works.

Thank you. Such facilities are welcome, although they are
in general much more difficult to communicate.
Read the UDA. It is IMO such a "facililities". The logic
is only for those who have grasped UDA and want to see
the emergence of the quantum in machine's mind.
To be honest I think you were also rather hardhearted with
Brent Meeker's post. That post was indeed indirectly pointing
to the very reasonable critics which can be adress to Thaetetus
definition of knowledge (true and justify) which entails
we can know think for bad or reason.
To introduce "causality" in the definition of knowledge is
a move which will be forbidden by comp and UDA, we must on the
contrary extract the squeletton on causal proposition from
our definition of knowledge or better observation.
In fact that remarks is important and we will be obliged
to say more on that, soon or later.
