The rest of us have to start by proving than 0 is less than 1 (http://www.math.colostate.edu/~adams/teaching/math431spr2015/ProofZeroIsLessThanOne.pdf) and go from there.

Oh, no, no way am I going to go there. I once had a cute little book called _Professor E. McSquared's Guide to the Calculus._ Nicely illustrated with cartoons. Chapter One was all about set theory. I gobbled it up. Chapter Two was about number lines, and there I quit. No amount of brain sweat could prevent me from making fencepost errors. Numbers don't fit in my head. -- Dorothy J.

Or did Proposition whatever back when effectively defund those? More like, the City of Vallejo went bankrupt a while back when the Navy moved off Mare Island, and though it's now manaed to get out of it, all city services are woefully underfunded. I've been in the Vallejo library. It contains a very large selection of rare books on the history of Solano County; I think somebody died and left them his collection. Other than that, it contains multiple copies of the current best-sellers and self-help books. I've never found there anything I wanted to read. I'll save my nickels and dimes. -- Dorothy J.
