You are absolutely right. Please take it for real when I write "stimulation". Far away form validation of course. Dubious then is more a misunderstanding. Because maths seems to amuse you positively let me add something. If I would pronounce that 10-2="7", would you react the same way and explain that this were "dubious"? For me, away from maths, you simply can never _prove_ something with 100% certainty. So, by force, all what is outside mathematics, _must_ be dubious. But what does it say? Nothing in the end IMO. :) Rolf Tueschen > >>By far I want to be the one who will dominate a certain >>singular theory.
