I point out how I use Usenet as I think it's the right thing to do.
Posters may order me to behave a certain way and I'm not going to do
it. But at least I can let you know what my methodology is. And yes,
insults do fly at times, but I get insulted a lot, and I insult back,
or I don't. But I also am dealing with what I can prove is the
recalcitrance of people who have broken their own rules, refused
published proof--killing a mathematical journal no less--who are
relying on flawed math for their livelihoods, or for their delusions
of value in their own "research".

Social structures can be powerful.

It doesn't mean they are right about mathematics.

Time is the best judge.

As time has gone by I've been privileged to watch new technologies
render hostiles who inflict verbal abuse upon me--shift it to Google,
as they proclaim Google search results mean nothing.

Why? Because I've seen my research rise in Google search results, and
rise in search results across search engines, so for them, there is no
choice, I guess. You might think the truth is a choice. I thought so
too but then again, years ago I thought all kinds of things before
learning better.

People can quite deliberately choose to be wrong. And ignore all
evidence.

I try to be fair. I have the best seat in the house. For me it is a
world away from where I was years ago arguing on this newsgroup,
wondering if I'd ever find anything valuable. Hurting from my
failures, questioning myself, wondering why I bothered, or couldn't
just stop. Wondering why there were people who wanted to say so many
nasty things to me--night and day, day and night.

Then it got harder. I didn't ask the ring of algebraic integers to
dispute the field of complex numbers. It did so before I was born.
It can't help doing so, it will do so until the end of time. To me,
the refusal to accept that is so much about how our world can have so
many problems that are solvable as people who are invested in being
wrong do not care about the correct answer.

If mathematicians can sit back, and keep doing what they're doing when
it's EASY to show a deep error, and an astounding conflict between
ideas, then there is no puzzle about how people in harder areas to
find truth can do so many of the things they do.

The truth will not change.

There is a sadness though when you see people who have invested so
much in error when it wasn't their fault, who decide that they'd
rather be wrong when the error is revealed--they did not know before
but how can they continue in error after?--and I'm not the best person
though to appreciate that feeling as of course I can say the above
knowing that my job was to show that error. Knowing that I get to be
right.

So I get to be the lucky guy, right? So lucky. Petty arguments don't
change much for me.

But what I can do is warn you. There is no reason to argue with me to
make your place in history as one of my foils. I have a method that
I've used for years. It is honed by years of practice.

Denial of that reality does not change what happens.

It merely give me more people willing to work to insult me for a
while, but work them I do. I think a lot of them actually don't do a
bad job. But at the same time to be fair I need it out there so this
message is like so many before explaining that I use Usenet.

You have been told yet again.

I beg to differ. I believe French mathematician Jean-Pierre Serre
has a better view over number theory.

This is a church JSH used to go to, and he chants in this recording, he has
the high naseling sound, he used to be the prime indicator of the church,
but later fell out as others failed to worship same;

Kenneth Ribet gave a talk entitled "Serre's Modularity Conjecture"
in 2007, which was videotaped.

I think the main article of Serre's that Ribet is referring to is
"Sur les representations modulaires de degre 2 de Gal(Qbar/Q)",
Duke Math. J. vol. 54, 1987, pp. 179--230.

The videotaped lecture is available from:
< http://fora.tv/2007/10/25/Kenneth_Ribet_Serre_s_Modularity_Conjecture > .

There's also this, by Bas Edixhoven and others, on the historical development
of modular forms:
