Why I was born
History has lots of stories of melt-downs by
mathematical people and it has long been considered
that people who have deep insights into mathematics
are often mentally unstable, and likely to suffer
tremendous melt-downs and take themselves out.
But no major mathematical discoverer at my level
has ever failed.
Not in all of human history, and they didn't
understand that I would not allow myself to be the
first.
And I am more than capable of changing the entire
world if necessary to make certain that mathematics
progresses.
After all, that is why I was born in the first place.
