     Mathematical axioms have ramified over the centuries to create a body of
knowledge of extraordinary complexity.  But difficulty is not the province of
useful information.  Nonsense can be couched in riddles just as easily as the
good stuff.  The ability to absorb only what is useful is a function of
wisdom--not intelligence (although from time to time many of us feel tempted to
dignify particularly brilliant albeit specious arguments).  It can all be
summed up in the following adage: a stream cannot rise higher than its source.

                                                                      Regards,
