   Can anyone explain why we use logic? Unfortunately, any logical arguments to
   support logic, are unfortunately, invalid.

Because if you don't use logic we'll kill you.

(Can we start a group for bozos who want to propose dusty old paradoxes
as if they were somehow something we hadn't all seen a thousand times
before?  Something like alt.logic.stupid-tricks?)
