On the true false unknown null question.

There is a definite difference between unknown and null.

Unknown (to me at least) suggests you Dont Know. Null itself suggests you dont know whether you know or not.

as it were...

its a literal null state of knowledge, as opposed to unknown which is a positive denial of knowledge.

try posting in a philosophy group for a serious answer on that one....

:P is there a database.philosophy group out there? Received on Wed Apr 02 2003 - 03:46:10 CST
