The Logical Place 
Hello Tim,
I discovered your site when I was looking for logical fallacies two weeks ago. I find your site very intriguing as I have started to explore it. It is a great place to learn about many thing philosophical. Anyhow, I have a question: What would be a philosophical term for he say she say?

Dictionary definition: ‘he-said-she-said. Noun. (uncountable) Conflicting reports from two or more parties on an issue, usually involving a situation between a man and a woman with no other witnesses.’
I am not aware of any philosophical account of this phrase. Is anybody else?

Mr Harding: As a WordPress user, I seem to be unable to get comments published on so.e blogs – in this particular case, WEIT – of which you just reblogged an article.
With only these data, could you perhaps tell me what I may me missing or doing wrong? Thank you beforehad,
Federico

Andrea, my understanding is that WordPress users who want to send private messages to each other need to either send an email or install a WordPress plugin. See: https://wordpress.org/plugins/private-messages-for-wordpress/
I will install this plugin via my PC tomorrow (I’m using an iPad at the moment).

Lovely to hear from you, Andrea. I was aware of your literary career before coming across your blog. As a non-fiction reader (and hobby writer) I don’t get to read many novels, but yours are at the top of my list!

Many more truths to be found in fiction – an entirely unbiased view of course.
I don’t mean to sound like a Luddite but is it possible to communicate on this site NOT in full view of your 610 followers?

Tim Harding? From Monash decades ago? The serenading troubadour? Former Fitzroy Mayor? The demise of private life occasionally yields a reward and this might just be one.
