"Millennium Problems

In order to celebrate mathematics in the new
millennium, The Clay
Mathematics Institute of Cambridge, Massachusetts
(CMI) has named
seven Prize Problems. The Scientific Advisory Board
of CMI selected
these problems, focusing on important classic
questions that have
resisted solution over the years. The Board of
Directors of CMI
designated a $7 million prize fund for the solution
to these problems,
with $1 million allocated to each. During the
Millennium Meeting held
on May 24, 2000 at the Collège de France, Timothy
Gowers presented a
lecture entitled The Importance of Mathematics, aimed
for the general
public, while John Tate and Michael Atiyah spoke on
the problems. The
CMI invited specialists to formulate each problem.

One hundred years earlier, on August 8, 1900, David
Hilbert delivered
his famous lecture about open mathematical problems
at the second
International Congress of Mathematicians in Paris.
This influenced our
decision to announce the millennium problems as the
central theme of a
Paris meeting.

The rules for the award of the prize have the
endorsement of the CMI
Scientific Advisory Board and the approval of the
Directors. The
members of these boards have the responsibility to
preserve the
nature, the integrity, and the spirit of this prize.

Wow. So you have had the gaul to call me a troll, ridiculously comparing me with musatov when the rate at which I post is well below one tenth what musatov posts, and a good portion of my posts are on-topic. The difference in degree between my off-topic posts and those of musatov is clear to anyone. And yet you put me in the same category as the waste-of-life musatov.

And you have asked me to leave. And here you are, feeding the troll yourself. How rich of you.
