False Beats / Loose pins

[Porritt, David]

Richard:

So I was told that eating ice cream will make me fat.  Does this mean
that if I avoid all ice cream that I'll stay slim?

David.

Either they cause false beats...or they dont.  You cant have it both 
ways. The rules of logic state:

 If the statement <<If A then B>> is true, then every time A occurs B 
follows. If B does not follow, then the statement <<If A then B>> simply

doesnt hold and there must be another reason for B.

While false beats can be caused by loose pins it doesn't necessarily
follow
that all loose pins will cause false beats.
