I use a filter to exclude a folder named " catalogs":

set folderList to (sort (every folder of A whose name
is not " catalogs") by name)

This works fine and " catalogs" in not included in folderList.

Is it possible to include a second name filter? I tried this:

set folderList to (sort (every folder of A whose name
is not " catalogs" or name is not " to review") by name)

The script using the second filter runs without error, but the " to
review" folder is not excluded from folderList.

Is there a way to exclude both folders using one sort routine?

Thanks.
