Definition 2: A set of clubs is said to be *maximally preclusive* iff every pair of its members is mutually preclusive and no club that is not a member is mutually preclusive with all of its members. "Definition" 3: The *set of final clubs* is one and only one of the maximally preclusive sets. Preferably not a singleton set, and preferably one whose member clubs are as exclusive as possible, with long traditions, etc. Would that do as a non-circular definition? I'll try translating it to Lojban if it is accepted. co'o mi'e xorxes ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GET A NEXTCARD VISA, in 30 seconds!
