Yeah, and everyone here has an awful lot invested in Wiles and
Galois. No wonder we scheme to protect them.

But I keep forgetting something. You keep mentioning Dedekind's
mistake and how your work reveals that mistake. But could you do your
humble archivist a favor? Just state as clearly as possible:

(1) What Dedekind's mistake is. I know it's in the theory of ideals,
but which of the theorems of this theory is mistaken?

(2) Where did Dedekind make the mistake?

Thanks much.
