I took honors intergral calculus at Indiana University
by Daysman

One day, one of my class mates showed me a proof that 1+1=3 ... it included the rounding of .999999999999999999999999999999­99999999999999 unto eternity as equal to one, which was a valid conclusion, and although I have forgotten all my math and science applications, I remember that the proof was valid.... according to the science of calculus, which was handed down to us by the ancient Greeks.

at any rate, I noticed the perfect momentum of your mind in your reply. You have already concluded that everything in my post has already been addressed and refuted, even though I have never posted any of those things before, every item you read is new... but the momentum of your mind and the dullness of your reading concluded them all as old hash that must have been "refuted" by someone... another way of saying that you do not want your "truth" intruded upon by any new version of reality.
