Why would there *have* to be one such?

Does anyone think you have anything both original and non-trivial?

I've had a paper published, but then sci.math'ers mounted that email
campaign against it.

I've had people come on and post in support of me, and sci.math'ers
went after them.

Just to test, I asked if it would matter if I had someone from NASA
post in support, and posters attacked NASA.

Since this *has* to happen 'eventually', maybe you could give some
estimate of when this will be - some kind of *testable* prediction
perhaps...


As long as mathematicians as a group maintain the respect of the world
so that people cannot imagine them doing what they're doing, then it's
a process of attrition.

Maybe the word goes out and some money doesn't get appropriated.

Maybe a mathematician at a party gets a few odd glances, or hears an
odd question here or there, so you never know what the full impact of
it is.
