Moi capitulate? No my dear Melchoir - evidently you have learned nothing about me through all these discussions. If you are trying to immitate me, you ought to do it properly, i.e. when I say a load of rubbish - I back it up with real facts, not myth. You went and erased some posts that you thought were maliciously critisizing you but had you read them correctly, you would have realized that I was attacking the arrogant fool called Kmsrq (Mr. Good Grief!) As for abstract algebra, I also passed this course too - it's was worth far more than basic analysis. I would not call this a load of rubbish but I would call real analysis a load of rubbish. It is full of errors and contradictions. I pity poor students who have to listen to ignorant professors try to explain that 0.999... = 1. Look at how you failed miserably: you started off with Dedekind cuts. You incorrectly assumed that a Dedekind cut represents only one number (you swallowed this willingly as a student without much thought about it - even Hardy (the pompous fart) did not know this). I bet Hardy can talk screeds about the central limit theorem and not impart any understanding to his students. Truth is that he is not way above them. The problem is not with students, it is with fools the likes of Hardy and company. You cannot teach what you don't understand! I look on people like Hardy with utmost contempt. He is a bitter and twisted individual who probably takes pleasure out of making his students seem incompetent. I would place Ksmrq in this category too. Birds of a feather... 

 Passer-by:: Melchoir knows it's absurd. You need not worry. He is playing a game with me.
