Hardly surprising, because that sentence says nothing. The author was confusing statement with record. >That was what I was trying to clarify. And instead further confused the issue. >A continuation is not a new statement. Then it's a good thing that I never claimed that it was. A record is not necessarily a statement, and vice versa. The two fail to be synonymous precisely in the case where there is a continuation line, in which case the statement comprises multiple records. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)
