This is where I disagree. R1742 allows an arbitrary type of contract to be made with oneself, without it being a pledge. And R2191 does not prevent it. R1742 states that *any* binding agreement is automatically a contract. R2191 does *not* state that any agreement/contract with one party is automatically a pledge. See the difference? For example, you could make a contract that said "This contract starts with me, but other people can join". That would be a contract with only one party, but it wouldn't be a "pledge until someone else joins and not a pledge afterwards" (unless of course it specifically identified itself as such). -Goethe
