Re: Predicates

In my nwebye terms it will be, for the first

select all the catalog/players whose name is not Frank Lampard nor Damian Duff

and for the second

select all the catalog/players whose name is not Frank Lampard, then
from the resulting set select all the catalog/players whose name is
not Damian Duff

meaning the result is identical...
