Thread Name: BS: QUIZ. Google use not cricket.
Subject: RE: BS: QUIZ. Google use not cricket.
If anyone has any books of popular fallacies (different from urban myths) which the quiz is about, that are no longer required, I'd be interested.

   I already have the Ackerman, both Tom Burnam, Ward's Dictionary of Common Fallacies, Fads and Fallacies, Clark's Mistakes we Make (but not its successor, More Mistakes we Make), Ignorance of Certainty (but not yet Prevalence of Nonsense, also by Montagu and Darling)

   11. What error(s) might be in the following,"The Battle of Waterloo was won on the playing-fields of Eton"Duke of Wellington)?
