Does anyone have a link to the post where James claims 2 is an
irrational number? I was looking for it to add to my "greatest hits"
collection but I had no luck (maybe the victim of deletion?) I also
remember there was a witty commentary on JSH's work, saying something
like "In [date] James made the startling discovery (assertion?) that 2
is an irrational number" and I thought it was on the CrackPot index,
but I can no longer find it. Any help would be appreciated.

"2 is a real number, in the same way that is an irrational."
