In Class: logos artifact

I brought in my calculator because I believe it makes a logical argument.  I associate logos with direct facts, statistics, and numbers.  If something is definite, it appeals to logos because it represents logic and a definite value.  While ethos represents credibility, and can often be bases on one' point of view, logos is definite.  Logos is right or wrong, just like with any math problem.  One's observations, written data, or anything that definite is not only powerful in an argument, but very credible in the sense that is is a fact.  Logos is for the most part, non-negotiable.
