Maybe someone could spare a sec and teach me some English and free me from puzzling. Are the above/quoted sentence semantically equivalent with "Hopefully at all times at least one of these should be up..."? (At least in math \forall and \exist are not commutative (i don't know the correct linguistic term for this) - that's why i wonder.)
Yeah. Logically (skipping the "hopeful" bit) it parses to something like; For all moments (the number of mirrors that is up is a integer larger then zero) Which equates to what you said; For all moments( There is a mirror( that is up )) I don't have the proper logical signs on my keyboard, which is probably a good thing :¬) (pun intended). Yours, Kas.
