no-one seriously questioned Copernicus,
who did not try to get his friend, Pope Urban, to put his stuff
into the writ. Galileo would not even reply
to a respectful query from Kepler -- talk about your sleepwalkers!

Newton merely algebraized Kepler's three orbital constraints, and
stole the solution from Hooke, to boot -- on the shoulders of a giant,
who was physically a dwarf; hence, the joke. the British lagged
by a hundred years in the use of calculus, it is said, because
they refuzed to use Liebniz's notation, after creating the
"controversy,"
politically out of the Royal Society.

anyway, Cardinal Bellarmine apparently instigated the helio/geocenter
hoax,
because of Galileo's promotion of atomism. it is all of no
consequence,
except for the continued hagiography of the Paolo Sarpi school;
see http://wlym.org. on the other hand,
the Ptolemaic hoax is still in effect, because of "symbolic" or
western astrology, a once-removed Hindoo mindcontrol,
carried-out by the Daily Twelve Newspaper Fortune-cookies:
any one will do, at random or just read'em all & pick your favorite!

thus:
you've uncovered the main problem with superstringtheory:
1D waves!
> your initial/boundary conditions.

thus:
oh, the lines;
as soon as I can make heads or tails (or even edges)
out of your syntax!

maybe, you should go back to "line-numbers,"
just for our benefit, the enormous Pea-net Gallery
(query: is that a reference to G.W.Carver?)
>> Can't you read between the lines?

thus:
oh, Sagan did some numbertheory?... well,
that'll humanize him a bit;
the real Doctor Stranglelove had his own program on PBS!
> That Ramanujan had excellent intuition, but he wasn't always correct.

thus:
yes, I'd killfile him if I were better equipt;
this is a brief detour from avoiding "HSJ: peristalsis occurreth"
threads
of my own volition, and thank YOU, HSJ, for the label.

so, you really didn't bother with the resultage, either, but
"student-level" seems to be an over-estimate;
if a student actually was interested in numbertheory,
all of this would ne'er have existed. oh, but,
he's no mere student, he's the Queen of Mathematics, himself ... and,
what does that make AP?

now, prove Fermat's Little Theorem, some one!... some one,
herinat, prove biquadratic reciprocity, and quintic!... I mean,
it would not really surprize me, if he actually did prove a new
result. but,
big magnanimous if/then, he'd be able to explain it in so many words,
instead
of this unending riffraff of hiphop pseudomathspeak and
"social analysis" -- feh, the original soft science, gone all squishy:
Foucault/Derrida/Sokal/HSJ/WeAreDevo, could just be a somewhat
elaborate hoax;
it's all relative to the amount of time, one gives attention to it. I
mean,
how many online math journals have risen & fallen,
with the explcit purpose of publishing his **** for the sake
of online mental patients?... "there, but for the grace of ... NO --
I may be kwite krazee but I'm not that stupid!"

all problems are actually, penintimately wordproblemmas,
using them which are more powerful than their anagram.... whereas,
maybe HSJ has some minor impairment or, like Justice Thomas,
a large overlay of the Gullah language to work-through,
AP is strictly a hardcore, unrepentant student of "E-prime,"
the fake language, more foolish than Esperanto, or just a joke;
that is to say, pidgen (sp.?).

I am reminded of zee froglegs, because I had finally realized that a)
the metaphor applies to me & most Americans, and that b)
it may actually be true, since a frog has no experience
of temperatures any where near boiling, all reptilean somatic, except
at Yellowstone!
> student-level study

thus:
Cheeny has just launched a diversion from his 3rdBritishInvasionSudan
plan,
involving contretemps with Mother Russia and Baby Georgia;
where is the clock on the God-am Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists,
now -- a twelveth past twenty-four hundred hours?... I just saw
the current issue at the bokstore, and the feature of the issue
is bemoaning nuclear power, while the whole planet escapes
from our '50s lightwater unfailsafe paradigm, not to mention
our late-'50s program of space (at least, it was not unmanned).

so, that paper timepiece is going to be at the whim
of the two, new candidates for Imperial Vice P., or
simply 4mo'year of Trickier Dick, whether one knows it or knot:
the Harry Potter PS of American History from Rhodes Scholarship
(Oxford U. Press), insists upon an explicit doctirne of American
Imperialism
in the vain of Teddy Roosevelt. this was reprezented in the NYTimes
of yesterday, letter to editro style, bemoaning Dick's policies,
without any acknowledgemnt that it is all legal, all written
by sub rosa lawyers in exec.orders (or where ever), and
virtual VP Joe's call for US military intervention in Durfar;
Dick can now abandon that policy to the Prendergast Machine,
Cold War Trumanism etc. ad vomitorium, R&orD!
