Bill,
Oh! In other words, Pat was using brackets
as a method of quoting:
> (forall (p) (implies (believes john p) (= p [round earth])))
Then we're in agreement. I always insisted that we need
at least a quote and preferably a backquote, as in KIF.
I misunderstood Pat's form [p] as a suggestion for
marking the quantifier. If it's a notation for quoting
then I have no objections. But does it also allow
the option of letting the variables in p be quantified
outside the brackets?
John
