Well, not really --. I've been sending that post to lit-ideas for ages, etc. I 
don't think teemu or andreas or lit-ideas felt like distributing it. Mind, your 
reply, was only sent to _me_. Incidentally, I wondered how the system managed 
to send it to you at earthlink.net when I addressed, by mistake, to 
earthlink.com. I suppose that's Archemidian, rather than Pythagorean, but 
yes... 

So, if you send your reply to this (copying this, of course), we'll all have 
publicly your yay, yay, yay. 

I have loads to share with lit-ideas. I have _not_ been reading all the 
interesting posts by Julie, David, R. Paul, Wager, etc. because, trust me, 
everytime I tried to send something to lit-ideas, cc-ing andreas and 
teemu17@xxxxxxxxx, it failed. I suppose it's the old curse still given to me by 
C. Bruce, -- but he _did_ say he had a personal problem (and not with me!).

Anyway, life is good

Cheers,

JL

  Yay, yay, yay!  JL is back!  I'd begun to fear he'd drowned in his Loeb 
Swimming Pool.  But no, he's just been studying the Pythagoreans.  Pie are 
round, cake are square, whatever, and all that stuff.  As we all know Thales 
was much impressed with the young Pythagoras and advised him to head to Memphis 
and study with the priests there who were renowned for their wisdom as indeed 
they still are.  It was in Memphis that Py first formulated his famous theorem, 
probably from studying their famous stainless steel Pyramid. 

  Good to know you're still with us, JL.

        ROMA. Geary, who holds a Doctor of Divinity from the Memphis 
Metaphysical Ministry will give a lecture on "I Pitagorici" at the annual 
symposium in the Campodoglio.

        Journalist Speranza:

        "Why did you chose "I Pitagorici" for today's lecture?"

        GEARY: It always amazed me how the Pythagoreans (sorry, can't really 
pronounce Italian) did wonders with numbers. I want to explain the audience how 
it _actually_ works.

        "Are you applying your mathematical schemes to a specific field of 
reality?"

        Well, no -- although most of the ciphers refer to the election in the 
country I am coming from.


        ---

        From Geary's notebook,


          I was alarmed 

          6,888 people 

          .2% black
        ------

        ergo
          14 black people.  

        76.6 percent 

        old 

        11/351 Obama

        351 11 

        ---

        ergo:

        .03%.  

        99.97% ~ black. 

        I feel better knowing that.

          I was alarmed when I first read this, worried that it might presage a 
          desertion of white voters and signal a Hillary comeback.  So I 
checked out 
          the statistics.  Harney County has 6,888 people living there.  Of 
that 
          population .2% are African Americans, a grand total of 14 people.  
Assuming 
          that the black population of Harney County is representative of the 
rest of 
          the Oregon population in age demographics, then 76.6 percent of those 
          African Americans would be old enough to vote.  Assuming as well that 
all of 
          the voting age African Americans went to the polls and that all voted 
for 
          Obama, then of the 351 votes cast for Obama, 11 were from African 
          Americans -- a whopping .03%.  That means that of the Obama vote 
99.97% were 
          cast by non African Americans.  So, Harney County is no Kentucky or 
West 
          Virginia.  I feel better knowing that.
