Theory about Fidelity Research MC & PMC Carts

The question is about identity while identity theory already

exist. Say for someone who does not know that Vienna is

the same city as Wien (German) , Wenen (Dutch), Bec (Serbo-

Croatian), etc. We are used to think that names have unique

reference. But there are different names with the same reference.

This made ''logical conclusion'' about the truth possible :

''whatever is true about Vienna is also true about Wien, Wenen

and Bec (grin). This is called ''substitutio salva veritate'' . One

can substitute any of those names for each other and retain

the truth.

I owned a MC201 back in 1980-81. Wish I still had it!
