I had trouble figuring out one line in Twisted: the reasoning and the logic that went on in my head. A Web search revealed at least three versions: the idiomatic logic, the litany and the logic, and the reasoning and the logic. That last sounds right to me.

I received an email in October 2005 with several corrections for this page (Thanks, Erin!), including the idiomatic logic— and now I keep hearing the litany and the logic!)
