    Thanks for the detailed response. I was at a loss as to how to precisely interpret the two sentences, so I thought I might try to force them into a conditional relationship in order to get a visual representation. However, after doing that, it only complicated things as you correctly point out.

    The LSAT learning curve is going to be an interesting one.

    Use of Negatives

    Is there a difference in meaning between the following two statements?

  • You will not have to worry about having something to say.
  • You will not have to worry about not having something to say.
  • Superficially, they seem to mean the same. But if I were to diagram them out, they do seem to differ in meaning.

  • /W → SS (W=worry, SS=something to say)
  • /W → /SS

    Are you sure?
