Mary, Bill, and George are standing side by side in a straight line.
Mary is to the right of Bill; George is to the right of Mary.
Conclusion: Bill is to the left of George? No. Quite the contrary,
Bill is to the right of George. How can that be?

Bill and Mary are facing opposite directions as George. Therefore, it is George's right but Bill's left.
