What is curling you ask? It's just like chess, except there's sweeping involved
sometimes. It's a game of pure strategy. Aristotle developed his account of the
valid and invalid syllogisms through a detailed and systematic study of
curling. Socrates would have no clue as to the examination of the necessary and
sufficient conditions of the virtues were he not a skip on the Athenian team.
The Persians never could read the ice accurately. Hence, we today believe
philosophy began with the Greeks instead of the Persians. Cheers, Walter
