But I would just add that the "E" in CLCE stands for English.    (04)

We should consider CLCC for Chinese, CLCJ for Japanese,
CLCS for Spanish, etc.    (05)

The "logic" in any book of any kind is somebody's theory
about how people can, do, or should reason.  Nobody really
has a good theory about how people actually reason.  That's
still a major research question.    (07)
