So what? The question was whether or not 'birds are lizards' is 
semantically entailed by ((cats are dogs) and (it is not the case that 
cats are dogs)), not whether facts about birds specify facts about lizards.

What exactly do you think the meaning of ((cats are dogs) and (it is not 
the case that cats are dogs)) actually is? And how does it *not* 
semantically entail that birds are lizards?
