Why, real mathematicians are always willing to serve by explaining to less experienced mathematicians(anyone who loves math regardless of level of experience academic degrees) the proofs behind their conjectures. They don´t waste their time on usenet trying to ridicule people with a genuine look for knowledge and truth.

I am sure that book makes fun of all the mathematicians who "wouldn´t
bother to give proofs".
After all they are "dictated by reason" therefore, according to the
title, bastards.

You seem to be the anti-reason here, so good luck in your attempts to make fun of people willing to learn. Received on Fri Apr 09 2010 - 19:33:07 CEST
