Right. We know. You are not a mathematician. You are a
*scientist*. Evidently, you work in a scientific field so simple that
every theory of the field can be explained and justified to a layman
using just the standard tool of Usenet. In only a few posts.

Otherwise, how could one understand your incredulity at failing to
apprehend a theorem of set theory? I mean, if your field wasn't so
transparent to the layperson, well, then you wouldn't expect to
understand mathematics without cracking a text or at least asking for
a definition.

So, what *is* your scientific field? I have a free afternoon coming
up. Maybe I can write a dissertation in that field. Maybe two.

Or maybe you don't apply the same demands of transparency of results
to your field that you require here.

Or maybe you're not a scientist. Who knows?
