A reply to Torretti and Giannoni

Frank Jackson, Robert Pargetter

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Robert Torretti's objection is verificationism writ large. We reply
that verificationism is to be rejected. Carlo Giannoni's objection is
that our test for tilting fails because the rod might tilt and yet no
current flow through its mid-point. We reply that nevertheless we
can test for tilting because there would still be differences detectable
with a glavanometer.
