Hi Lathlee,

In the above sentence, "none but" is equivalent to "only." Thus, "hotel clients" is the necessary condition and "given free passes to the hotel's health club" is the sufficient condition:

  • given free passes to the hotel's health club :arrow: hotel clients

I'm not sure I'm following you here, so could you explain this a bit more? To express formal logic, you simply use the diagramming system we already have in place, which uses arrows and so forth, including :arrow: , :dbl: , :dblline: , :some: , and :most: .

As far as emoticons, I'm thinking you must mean something else. I don't know of a way to use symbols like :) or ;) unless you just straight substitute them for arrows and other elements. So, let me know what you're getting at here.

Thanks!
