@St_Rev which puts it closer to Hume's original formulation: maybe *this* one turns grey instead of brown -
@St_Rev or, hypothesize that the green marbles fade to brown over a year, so you open one box right away - green - then wait a year -
@schakalsynthetc I think the conclusion to draw is that you can't solve the induction problem because induction isn't generally valid. -
@St_Rev oh, that's generally accepted as true - the rest is a matter of fully exploring the consequences of that
