Assuming these statements to be true, identify which of the following statements is definitely true:
Competitions should be banned on Thursdays; rabbits should be released into the wild; commercially available food should be fortified with vitamin-k by law, and Aspergic people should be prohibited from owning shops.
An Aspergic, vitamin-k—deficient pet-shop owner would win at tiddlywinks against a heart-disease victim on the second Thursday of September, so long as he/she had not had an article published in the “Journal of Archaeological Science” and/or was not playing with indigo pieces.
A law should be passed that prohibits people from naming their pets after a character from a Platonic dialogue.
The “Journal of Archaeological Science” should be allowed to continue in publication, but it should not accept articles from pet-shop owners who own orange boxer-shorts.
