ining some notion of physical numbers, you can show that the axioms of Peano will not work for those physical numbers. It is just that what PA, and Euclid, Pythagorus, Gauss, Fermat, Dedekind, Peano, etc. talk about is something which has nothing to do a priori with the sort of numbers this physic

es anyone know of other attempts to prove the existence of infinite sets, unrelated to Dedekind? It seems like the truth or value of axioms (of infinity or otherwise) should be judged by their fruitfulness in "ordinary" mathematical reasoning. In this sense their truth may be understoo

The existence of non-measurable sets is a consequence of the Axiom of Choice. It would therefore be interesting to know which Axioms are used by Bruno. John Mikes wrote:I believe, if a conceptual statement (a true one) is in conflict with a theory, I vote for the inadequacy of the theory. John
