Nope.  If you do it that way, it will be recorded unless it contains  
*both* 125 and 250.

Remember, an AND becomes the equivalent of a negated OR when you  
negate the two tests.  In other words:

A AND ((NOT B) AND (NOT C))

is the same thing as:

A AND NOT (B OR C)

Write out a truth table for the different possibilities of B and C  
and you'll see why.
