Back to AtD

[Mark Kohut]

No one else commenting?   this is what I meant, yes,and I too feel
mathematics in certain ways........but i am not a mathematician ......
 
Suggestion for a thesis: When mathematics in AtD goes beyond 
'natural mathematics" before imaginary numbers and Russell and Whitehead's
sets that arenot their own sets kind of stuff..............
 
it is intended to be as unreal as the early Chums(but not as harmless nor helpful) .....as avant-garde art [like Futurism
maybe?]........
 
It is no accident, as the phrase goes,that the Q-Bomb comes from THAT mathematics......

I can feel a certain peace and awe,  maybe laughter,  in pi,  in symmetry,  in equations.  I feel something in statistics but I don't know what it is - complex answer - awe and joy but coupled with worry (this may not be related to your question).
