Oh, wow, well there you DID say something. Of that I'm sure.

Ouch.

Ouch. Ouch.

You're just jealous of me defining mathematical proof.

Go to Google (has to be Google) and search on: define mathematical
proof

If I could get a definition read around the world defining
mathematical proof, then I think I can manage axioms.

Besides, arguing on this issue is just lighthearted fun. The prime
residue axiom leads to predictions.

In science that's what it's all about, the predictions.

Theory is only useful in that it leads to useful predictions.

Science is the art of prediction. (Hey, who said that originally? I
just did a quick search and didn't get the originator.)

Nope. With the simplest probability calculation they tend to be 1.12
times the actual count over time based on what others have posted.

I noted that was because of blocked states with higher residues with
the larger primes in the interval.

To quantum mechanics people that's not a complicated thought to
ponder.

Actually, in physics getting that close isn't necessarily a terrible
thing. And if that ratio holds being able to just divide by 1.12
means you can still predict even closer!

Remember, prediction is what matters. If a theory provides useful
predictions then it's a valuable theory.

I.e. wrong.

You think you know why the predictions are wrong. They are still
wrong.

JSH: Well if the predictions are wrong then
JSH: there is no further argument. End of story.

Are your predictions wrong? Please start your answer Yes or No.

Prime numbers are really "roots" of every integer quantity.

Where can I find a precise statement of this axiom? As a mathematical
formula, not as words. (So that it can, for example, be used in
an automated proof checker.)
