But given two points, there's only one possible straight line that can be drawn between them; between multiple elements of evidence, there's really only one best explanation. Which is the best explanation? That's determined by the rules of informal logic and argumentation;
​
So if my watch is stuck on 2pm, from when the bomb exploded, and my clock is also stuck on 2pm, and my alarm clock aswell. All the evidence suggest it was 2pm right?

Okay - see your point.
​
Ofcourse - I was trying to trick you into saying that it must have been 2pm the clocks stopped. But I could have forgotten that the clocks were supposed to be put an hour forward the night before.
​
My point was - all the evidence suggests it took place at 2pm, but it happened at 3pm. Don't mess with Columbo!

Okay. It's just that you said that evidence can't be interpreted any other way. I thought though, that we could interpret this as not a definite 2pm. But your answer about tentativity - answers my question.

I know I'm off topic Asgara, but I'm only young as you can see by my avatar, so I reserve the right to be naughty.
