Your algorithm is older than itch.
The marrow is to demonstrate that in the long run we always will find
a prime 6m - 1 followed by a 6m + 1.

twins are always of the form, 6n plus and minus one?

attempt to "save the dysappearance"
of Newton's God-am corpuscular "theory,"
by not using them in equations with "momentum
(equals mass times directed velocity)."

thank *you* and nice a have day.

actually, receding glaciers are probably better

there's more water.

can one tell a priori that a black surface will absorb more
infrared, since it is invisible in the first place, invoking,
perhaps, blackbody curves (and, there are "line spectra"
for both absorption & emmission) ??

I wish folks like Y'know and y'Know would at least *try*
to write their syllogistical theories in terms of,
"There Are No Photons?"

just this afternoon, a lecturer showed a slide
with a graph of "phonons from 0 to over 1 teracycles;"
is that the sound of light?

I like all three of those;
note that there is a raw infinity
of trigona, two of whose edges are perpendicular
to the other edge, as far as spherical trig goes,
and I really like those "half lunes."
