You thought wrong
DL — (archived)

RL and I each have our domains of talents, and they are related but very different. I, for example, can't remember off the top of my head what 9*7 is, but I can sit down and comprehend the proofs that shape mathematics as a field.

Now if you want to try to insult either of our different intelligences, you will only look like an idiot. RL may be beyond you, but I recognize his mind as one of the most impressive I have seen- and that includes the nobel prize winner I studied with. I think even those who can't stand RL recoignize his mind for what it is.

I have gaps and limitations, Johannes, to be sure. But being fooled or impressed with your tripe is not among them. You are welcome to read whatever you want into my reluctance to spar with you.

Please, by all means, if you want to declare victory- if that makes you happy- go right ahead. Myself and others will be chuckling form the sidelines.
