Hi,

Stephanie's eyes are fine.  I didn't mean the diagram 
on the right is equivalent to the diagram on the left.  
I meant that the diagram on the right illustrates 
a voter who believes that A is "equivalent" to C 
and that B is "equivalent" to D.  I was using 
Jobst's term for the symbol '='.  I usually call 
it indifference between A & C and indifference 
between B & D.
