this is a popular Catholic-bashing agrument
per "the Enlightenment," what ever is actually in a name, and
could not be further from truth. read the work of Nicolas de Cusa,
_De Docta Ignorantia_.
not all Jews are banker, not all bankers are Jewish;
if McCain and Obama do not cut the albatrosses of George Soros and
Dick Cheeny, their foreign & energy & space policies,
they will both go down to a Congressional decision TKO.

thus:
an aether simply provides a prealistical model
of the phenomenon of "waves;"
one need not deal with photons at all, since
they are formally dual to waves,
not at all paradoxical, as shown by Dirac. as it is in pop-sci,
far too much of theory rests upon Einstein,
saying "that's simply impossible," which is the reality
behind Michelson-Morley and those
who carried the examination further -- but,
herr doktor-professor Albert said, Nein!, when he was once
in his unused office at Caltech, duly recorded in some journal.
let us remember him for those things which he was really good at,
not the Big Bang Constant!
well, perhaps that *is* one thing that is plausible sans aether.

thus:
so, to ask an ignorant question of personal interest,
how much of this could be used toward a new or old proof
of quadratic reciprocity?

> Let Ax^2 - Dy^2 = c. [1]

> (Ax)^2 = Ac mod D
> Therefore, Ac is a quadratic residue mod D.
thus:
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 really 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!
thus:
Cheeny has just launched a diversion
from his 3rdBritishInvasionSudan plan,
involving contretemps with Mother Russia and Baby Georgia;
where's 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
is bemoaning nuclear power, while the whole planet escapes
from our late-'40s 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 doctrine
of American Imperialism in the vane of Teddy Roosevelt. this was
reprezented
in the NYTimes of yesterday, letter to editor 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!
thus:
of course, if you use a pair of hexahedral dice,
you'll get Cancer -- if you're lucky.

there's the trick, to prove this noncancellability of the mixed terms;
as many times as it was tired, were any succesful?

thus:
ah, sort of a solopsistic monad. I am reminded
of hte Many Words Interpretation of the Copenhagenskool:
to be or not to be that is the shape of the box or the bubble --
inside or out?
