Hubbard proudly announces his 1970 breakthrough in logic:

“I have found a way now to unlock this subject [logic]. This is a breakthrough which is no small win. If by it a formidable and almost impossible subject can be reduced to simplicity, then correct answers to situations can be far more frequent and an organization or a civilization far more effective.

“The breakthrough is a simple one.

“BY ESTABLISHING THE WAYS IN WHICH THINGS BECOME ILLOGICAL, ONE CAN THEN ESTABLISH WHAT IS LOGIC.

“In other words, if one has a grasp of what makes things illogical or irrational (or crazy, if you please) it is then possible to conceive of what makes things logical.”

What he must have overlooked though is the fact that to establish the ways in which things become illogical, one must have established already what is logical.
