Dear All,
AllI am trying to keep track, over a VERY slow modem, of all the arguments and
counter arguments that have come my way as a result of my attempts to find out
from you all what is essentially mathematical, what is essentially
computational, and what is essentially just plain good old fashioned LOGIC.
One point that slipped by in the hail of ">>>>>'s" was a distinction that
somebody made between simulation and mathematics. While I am asking REALLY
dumb questions, I wanted somebody to explain to me how ALGEBRA is not a kind
of simulation?
I promise that these questions arent endless, and that your answers have been
very helpful to me--for what THAT is worth.
