stales...
One hundred per cent of the time that I've heard the expression "by the same token" it was used in the context, as exampled below...
"Well, Clem is out of jail, I bet he learned a lesson."
"Yeah but, by the same token, in jail they teach you better how to steal."
That is- A divergent possibility emanating from the same base. That is- from the same token (meaning small) of information, other likelihoods can be construed.
Say Faldage, how did you get your 9's and 6'es close together to make percentage signs?
