You are stupid compared to me, but that's not a surprise.
If you realized that early, would you have played with me?
Instead I've had years of fun, but now I need to move on to other
games.
So I now tell you outright that you are stupid, and show it to you
with more mathematics.
You will fight, and I will break you.
I could have before, but then you wouldn't have played with me any
more.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder
A pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior), need for
admiration, and lack of empathy, beginning by early adulthood and present in
a variety of contexts, as indicated by five (or more) of the following:
(1) has a grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements
and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate
achievements)
(2) is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance,
beauty, or ideal love
(3) believes that he or she is "special" and unique and can only be
understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people
(or institutions)
(4) requires excessive admiration
(5) has a sense of entitlement, i.e., unreasonable expectations of
especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her
expectations
(6) is interpersonally exploitative, i.e., takes advantage of others to
achieve his or her own ends
(7) lacks empathy: is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings
and needs of others
( is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or
her
(9) shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes

Perhaps instead of spewing your useless nonsense, you should study this
disorder, go see a doctor and then drug and drink yourself to you pass out.
Research into your delusional fits of grandeur would be a more
appropriate vocation for you!
Think about, eh! |

You've said this before. You came back.

You've said this before as well, it didn't happen.

Perhaps if you learned to relax you wouldn't say things like the above.
Why do you feel this is a competition?

Is this addressed to anyone in particular? Or everyone? Figuring there
are tens or hundreds of thousand of sci.math readers, it's statistically
unlikely that you are smarter than ALL of them. Feynman had a remark
along these lines in one of his popular essays. He pointed out that in a
room full of people, he couldn't be sure he was the smartest person, but
he was reasonably certain that he was smarter than the average of all
the people.
Personally, I don't consider myself smarter than you. Frankly, not even
saner, just crazy in a different dimension. And not nearly as
entertaining. But still, you don't quite understand what constitutes a
mathematical proof; and you refuse to take the time to study enough
abstract algebra to communicate with anyone. You've clearly put a lot of
time and energy into your work, and you've brought awareness of the
algebraic integers to many of us who never knew about them before. You
bring a lot of entertainment to this newsgroup.
If you're about to take one of your periodic vacations from posting, I
for one will miss you. See you next time around. |

I can explain the algebra in detail to you, but if you simply choose
to claim it's nonsense, then no progress can be made, right?
Good, start by explaining all the counterexamples I have
provided. You have quite a backlog.
As an easy first step explain why, with a(0) = 0 and w1(0) =1
the constant terms of
(a(x) + 7)
and (a(x)/w1(x) + 7/w1(x))
are different.
Now then, if you will accept algebra, and point out an area of
confusion then I can explain to you. But if you are simply going to
just deny then there's little point.
Which is it? Will you follow algebra, and give a mathematical area
for me to explain, or are you just going to deny?
Which is it? Will you reply to the above and give mathematical
arguments, or are you just going to ignore?

And the winner is: ignore.
