 ost_uid0]Well, maybe you just need an easier example.  Let's see... :think: A black hole flies through a star system. It doesn't knock any of the five planets out of orbit. (Maybe not the best example, but that beside the point.) This is very illogical. It is logical that it's illogical. Therefore illogic is logical. Q.E.D. or something [/colorost_uid0]

ost_uid0]I don't know that's that a particularly good example - it's more a demonstration of extreme imporbability than of illogicality. Maybe something like the fact that Microsoft makes many good games is better - it's extremely illogical indeed that it should be so considering the quality of the rest of the software that they make. It's a fact, and fact equals logic, [iost_uid0]therefore[/iost_uid0] illogic is logical.[/colorost_uid0]

ost_uid0]Nan has an illogical wish to be mysterious.Nan also has an illogical desire to be evil. Nan places a higher value on being mysterious than on being evil. One morning, Nan wakes up and wonders, "Should I concentrate on being mysterious today, or on being evil?" Since Nan places a higher value on being mysterious, she decides to focus on being mysterious that day. Thus, Nan has gone about her illogic in a logical manner. [color=#CCCCCC ost_uid0](Who else thinks she will pop in and protest, "Who says I think being mysterious is more important?..."?)[/colorost_uid0][/colorost_uid0]
