Dr. Jerome Eisenberg kindly invited me to write
a paper for his conference on the Disc that will
be read to the audience on October 31 or
November 1 of this year. I just wrote my paper
and am very happy with it (three pages in word,
font 12). Thank you, Dr. Eisenberg.
Is this one of your 'jokes' or are you actually proud that you could
write three whole pages of 'scholarly' work.

I saw Dr. Jerome Eisenberg's e-mail yesterday
morning at 8 o'clock, in the country where I helped
a friend of mine, traveled back to Zurich, arrived home
at 10 o'clock, wrote the three pages, went to the
Federal Technological Institute and posted my message,
returned home, worked over my three pages, adding
illustrations, and sent a CD to London this morning
at 7 o'clock. So I wrote a paper for the conference
in eight hours, and sent it off in less than 24 hours
since I got the inivitation. Yes, I am very proud of
having managed to condense a wagonload of ideas
in three pages, and I achieved this with my method
of conveying a historical hypothesis in the form of
a fable, a story, even a fairy tale, a method for which
I got a prize by the University of Zurich, bestowed
on me on the dies academicus 1994.
wow! you wrote a conference paper in three hours! And with
pictures! It just shows what an incredible scholar you are. I'm sure
everyone will be hanging on every word of your wagonload of ......
You know if you change the font to 13pt, you might get it up to four
pages. That's what my 12 year old daughter does...she actually has to
write papers which are five pages long. Maybe one day you'll reach
her level.
