Final clubs - the final solution

["Jorge Llambias" <jjllambias@hotmail.com>]

This is my final solution, incorporating pc's ideas:

Definition 1: Two clubs are said to be *mutually preclusive*
iff membership in one precludes membership in the other.

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.
