I 228
Simons is in favor of Locke's Principle (weak) for substances: two substances cannot be at the same place at the same time.
>Substance/Locke.
I 264
Falsehood Principles/modal mereology/Kit Fine: in a possible world, where an object does not exist, every sentence is wrong, that says that this object has a part or is a part of something (not without truth value). This also applies to overlapping, but not to separateness.
Def weakly separated/Simons: objects are weakly separated when in a possible world either both exist or both do not exist.
Def strongly separated/Simons: here one might demand, that the objects exist in a possible world in which they are separated. This is just contrary and not contradictory to overlap.
>Part-of-Relation.
