"Mathematics may be defined as the subject in which we never know
what we are talking about nor whether what we are saying is true."

"As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not
certain; and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to
reality."

"The more you see how strangely Nature behaves, the harder it is to
make a model that explains how even the simplest phenomena actually
work. So theoretical physics has given up on that."

Personally I decided that "one" and "zero" are bogus concepts
when it comes to physics (one atom is not one of anything, but
a continuously changing collection of other things, etc), which
is why math gets more complicated as people get closer to
"the truth."

->Yes, numbers are infinite, as you can always add on one more number to

->Last Number.

->As there is NO last number as numbers continually go higher into
->infinity, what is that non-existent last number?

->Why, zero, of course... If you don't have a number, then you have
->zero...

->It was so damn obvious when one bothers to smell...

->Yup, ol' Doc Deadhorse goes down in history as the discoverer of the
->Last Number...

->POSSIBLY give a crap what the last number is?"

->Well, it's important to me as what IS the Last Number...
->Because isn't the Last Number the hindmost?
->Yes, just call me Zero, because that's what i am...

->(I am STILL totally confused and bewildered by alphas (she beings)
->posing and posturing themselves as male. So the hell what if they're
->currently wearing male bodies, that still doesn't make them actually
->male. Their behavior doesn't make any damn sense at all. Why would an
->alpha want to be anything but an alpha? Alphas have the greatest and

->alphas to have more fun than anyone. A perk they earn and deserve AS
->alphas, however their species/current bodyforms/whatever. So, it's not
->making any damn sense at all to me that alphas are trying to pose and
->posture themselves as male. Jeez, if they actually KNEW what it means
->to be an omega, they'd run away screaming in the sheerest of terror as
->how could any alpha be a zeroness? Actual omeganess is totally
->poisonous to alphaness. Yup, i'm bewildered and confused... While i
->freely admit i don't understand the psychology of she beingness, even
->to me this behavior of she beings posing and posturing themselves as
->male seems wa-a-a-ay over the edge. Who the HELL would want to give up
->their full capacity of having fun, fun, fun? So they're currently
->stuck in the wrong gender body... So how's about hustling the ol'
->bustle to get nanotechnology fully matured so it can be used to
->correct the problem of the wrong gender lifeforce being in the wrong
->gender body? Jeez, do i have to think of EVERYTHING? Alphas are
->supposed to be alphas and always way, way ahead of me...
->"Alphas, alphas, alphas... it's your RIGHT as alphas to have fun, fun,
->fun overdose... So what the HELL is your problem? You KNOW how cranky
->you get when you're not having fun... EXERCISE your damn right

->(Cheesits jumping chrysler... an omega teaching alphas how to be
