Atdtda22: [43.8iii] Yashmeen had rematerialised, 634

[Mark Kohut]

In getting a bit of math education for my next posts.....

I am not a mathematician but I will play one on the p-list.....
I learned this marvelous bit of wit (maybe...call me on it)
from OBA re Hilbert.    Which Paul's quoting sets right up:

In brief, his solution to Russell's Paradox presented right
before this in AtD.....was to say that we were certain of the
indisputablity of items in many, many---most---math and logic
"sets"....so we should only rely on those and forget the "paradox".

See how Hilbert is described: "Hilbert beyond a doubt"....TRP
is such a jokester.......

[634.38] From wherever she had been, Yashmeen had reappeared to take Kit's
arm ...

Cf. the previous page: "... yes, here was Hilbert beyond a doubt ..." (633).

Or earlier on the same page: "... there he was, undeniably at the canalside
..." etc (634).

Or later, the following page: "... none could quite suggest detaching from
these corridors commemorative of the persons they had once imagined
themselves to be ..." (635).
