[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 559618, member: 22662"] satellite- You've actually got me intrigued about my own sentence structure. I believe the first "no" is a simple repudiation of a previous post. Therefore the "don't" and "negative" would come together in the first sentence to form a positive. It is at that point that I use a period to end the thought and preclude the run-on sentence that would have been further indicated had I capitalized the first word of the following sentence, in this case "Cocky". Therefore, the double negative at the end of the sentence "not negative" is indeed as I sloppily claimed it to be. The fallacious reasoning that one can merely count the negatives in a statement to deduce the existence or lack of a double negative negates the possibility of implied subjects as well as simply bad grammar and or punctuation. You state that implied logic never works. Why would that be the case? And just what is it that it fails to do. You say "show proof of this statement", but if the implied logic that UPS never took RPS seriously is incorrect, then I stand corrected. If on the other hand UPS looked down on RPS and merely had the attitude that they were to be "tolerated by [their] betters" then I would say that the simple continued existence of FedEx Ground should imply at least a miscalculation of logic. My appologies for the troll talk. I will try to be better in the future so that i may continue to be "tolerated by my betters". [/QUOTE]
