Perhaps I misunderstood you.  When you said &quot;Induction defines that line&quot; I thought that meant you believed that the problem of induction had been solved.  Not necessarily by you, but if you were claiming it had been solved I was just asking what you thought the solution was.<p>But I&#x27;m still confused then, if you concede that the problem of induction hasn&#x27;t been solved, then why do you find the Popper&#x2F;Deutsch solution to it (or, if you prefer, end-run around it) so unappealing?  Do you <i>prefer</i> a world where this problem remains unsolved?
