I think you should look at my post on 2's complement and see if you think I am
being lazy, or am perhaps well prepared for this debate and not just blowing
smoke out my ass. If you are actually listening to what I have been saying,
perhaps you would like to commment on 100000.... as the binary representation
of oo, the opposite of 0, and the concept of the number circle which is
implemented in binary arithmetic, as addition becomes travel in one direction
around the circle, and subtraction is travel in the other. If you really look
at the various areas of math I am trying to unify and the kinds of conclusions
I am drawing without contradiction, you may start to pay attention, instead of
repeating that I am wrong and must agree with a system that in my mind is
deficient.
Bob, it does sound like you have some good other interests. I took Spanish,
Latin, and Greek in high school, and though I never pursued language as a
career, am glad to this day for what I learned by studying different languages.
By your choice of languages, I would guess there is biblical motivation for
them, perhaps? I am also very interested in religions. Perhaps one day I will
learn Sanskrit. We'll see what time permits in this life. PS - Thanks for
getting Ed to wrap his lines a little. ;)
