This is really niggling me, Zefram. I could have sworn this all came up when you first proposed the lying rule, and we had a discussion in which you took the position that an imperative (e.g. an assertation that "I do X") was neither true nor false. At that time, I bookmarked the following article: http://www.jstor.org/pss/184947 but we decided that we *weren't* classifying these sorts of statements as true/false in Agora, though the honest/dishonest distinction is interesting. Am I misremembering, or have you changed your position? -Goethe
