Steve:
I'm not sure what your point is then. Before I try to clarify any
thought experiments or provide additional examples, do you think that
a belief can be...

A. true but not justified?
B. justified but not true?

If so, if someone holds a true belief that is not justified, is that knowledge?

Can someone hold a justified true belief that does not count as knowledge?

Note that A and B are ruled by DMB's conflation of "true" with "justified."

This entry gets at a lot of JTB issues...
