What's interesting about this, and I'm surprised no one brought it up, is that my argument's validity depends on logic which I'm trying to show is independent of truth. I use logic to argue that there is no truth in logic. So is "there is no truth in logic" true??

only probably!? (sorry i'm not familiar enough with decision theory to make a more determinative statement.)

Might be relevant...

personally..I am tied in knots at this point (and the ropes I'm in have stragularly ends)

talk about entanglement!!

Is logic. . . logical?

Which logic you mean?

Um, two-value logic?

An interesting quote:

"The dominant tendency, however, to treat as equal what is merely similar – an illogical tendency, for nothing is really equal – is what first created any basis for logic." -- Nietzsche.

There are a few binary logics out there.

Some of those are not binary.

Well, in classical logic, that tendency isn't present. But there is a notion of "equivalence" among logic formulas (statements) which is mutual implication.
