Mathworld probably prevented me from flunking number theory last fall... a great resource.

Yes, but I'm not brave enough to show it to anyone :) at least until I have native words for the native concepts. Anyone looked much at poly- valent logic? See: http://www.aymara.org/biblio/igr/igr3.html (trivalent logic in Aymara?) http://www.hf.uio.no/filosofi/njpl/vol3no1/manyval/manyval.html I am (of course) aiming for a, hmm, pentavalent? logic. Fuzzy logic is also quite interesting. t.
