Re: Just started a blog on Fermat's Last Theorem

Hi Ludovicus,

Thanks for the question. You are absolutely right. My list is far
from complete.

I hope to include blogs on elliptic curves, modular forms, the
Taniyama-Shimura Conjecture, Gerhard Frey, Ken Ribet, and even Wile's
mistake in his first proof.

Cheers,

-Larry
