Hmmm...my years around these beasts (starting in the 1950s) suggest that 
*any* time I use "not" with "and" or "or" (or other spellings of not, 
and, or), I had better slow down and make very sure that I'm writing 
what I mean.  So much debug time is thus saved.

So don't hang your head in shame...you highlighted a problematic area.

fast)
