Information on an old TV show called "It Stands To Reason."
As I hazily recall, this was a TV show either on a Buffalo, New York PBS station (Channel 17, WNED), or on TVOntario (Channel 19) in Canada in the early 1970s, and was a show about logic or puzzles. It featured a male host working on a very simple, spare set, demonstrating or discussing logic-related items.
The only specific segment I recall was when he demonstrated how to tie a knot in a scarf without letting go of the ends in the process. (No, I don't need the answer to that.) I believe it was a series, but have no idea how long it ran.
The title is such a common phrase that googling isn't helping. No luck on imdb, TVTome, or ebay.
Any information about the show appreciated. If no one here knows, I suppose I could try calling the stations themselves. Other suggestions for further searching are welcomed.

Response by poster: Thanks but that is certainly not it.
