Fred, Funny that you should mention "set theory". As a freshman at Case Institute of Technology in 1959, we were subjected to "Geunther's Green Book" which was an attempt by the author to have the freshman math students "scrub" his efforts at writing a textbook on set theory - we got the "textbook" a chapter at a time on copied paper in a green binder. Needless to say, we were at times confused, but after a year of that effort I think we may have learned something, but to this day I am not sure of the math of it all. It either fits within the bounds of a set or it does not - seems more like a merging of logic and math to me, but then logic was closer to what I was perusing than the math equations.
