OG15 OG16 OG17	The following appeared in a report presented for discussion at a meeting of the directors of a company that manufactures parts for heavy machinery:"The falling revenues that the company is experiencing coincide with delays in manufacturing.

OG15 OG16 OG17	The following appeared in the health section of a magazine on trends and lifestyles:"People who use the artificial sweetener aspartame are better off consuming sugar, since aspartame can actually contribute to weight gain rather than weight loss. For example, high levels of aspartame have been shown to trigger a craving for food by depleting the brain of a chemical that registers satiety, or the sense of being full. Furthermore, studies suggest that sugars, if consumed after at least 45 minutes of continuous exercise, actually enhance the body's ability to burn fat. Consequently, those who drink aspartame-sweetened juices after exercise will also lose this calorie-burning benefit. Thus it appears that people consuming aspartame rather than sugar are unlikely to achieve their dietary goals."Discuss how well reasoned you find this argument.
