If A implies B, does not B imply not A?
If not knowing implies you answer, does not answering imply you know?
If not knowing implies you answer, does not answering imply you know?

.The Hatter opened his eyes very wide on hearing this; but all he SAID was, `Why is a raven like a writing-desk?'
`Come, we shall have some fun now!' thought Alice. `I'm glad they've begun asking riddles.--I believe I can guess that,' she added aloud.
`Do you mean that you think you can find out the answer to it?' said the March Hare.
`Exactly so,' said Alice.
`Then you should say what you mean,' the March Hare went on.
`I do,' Alice hastily replied; `at least--at least I mean what I say--that's the same thing, you know.'
`Not the same thing a bit!' said the Hatter. `You might just as well say that "I see what I eat" is the same thing as "I eat what I see"!'
`You might just as well say,' added the March Hare, `that "I like what I get" is the same thing as "I get what I like"!'
`You might just as well say,' added the Dormouse, who seemed to be talking in his sleep, `that "I breathe when I sleep" is the same thing as "I sleep when I breathe"!'
`It IS the same thing with you,' said the Hatter, and here the conversation dropped, and the party sat silent for a minute, while Alice thought over all she could remember about ravens and writing-desks, which wasn't much.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect.

Does formal logic deal in implications in the first place? Or are you taking "implies" to mean "then?" Was that implied by the OP?Comment

Either drinking or channelling Donald Rumsfeld. Or both...Speaking of Erith:

It would require someone who actually answers every time he doesn't know, and doesn't have a choice, though.Indifference is BlissComment

Worth the whole quote, I think.
"Reports that say that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns -- the ones we don't know we don't know."
