From: MichaelW on 15 Jun 2010 21:29 Assuming anyone cares... Just before JSH announced his sabbatical I was ready to retire from all JSH threads and now that he has returned it is time for me to formally retire from the fray (excepting this thread of course). With the deterioration of the group (accelerated by MMM but not caused by him) and the generally poor quality (from a maths perspective) of the JSH threads I have decided to move on. On a positive note thanks to everyone who encouraged my amateur scribbling; the feedback I got always meant more to me that I let on. Some achievements I am proud of: First up here is the thread that ran for 6 days without conspiracy theories, abuse or cannibalism: http://groups.google.com.au/group/sci.math/browse_thread/thread/e7e76869324d880b?hl=en# For reference here is the follow up thread: http://groups.google.com.au/group/sci.math/browse_thread/thread/93febd7d1ab63750?hl=en# I believe that I proved that if everyone agrees to behave and the abusers are kept out then a civilised and intelligent discussion is possible, at least for a few days. Secondly James proclaims his BQDE simplification (not a solution as he sometimes claims) and challenged anyone to better it. My better simplification is at the end of this thread: http://groups.google.com.au/group/alt.math.undergrad/browse_thread/thread/d5ade2378f1c67cd# Especially ironic given James' commentary in the post immediately before it. Needless to say James ignored my post. Finally I actually got Amazoti to shut up for several weeks. Hint: I asked him his age. Regarding the current discussion: I was able to download the Java code before Google groups stopped providing it and I can PM it to anyone who asks (20K zip file). I can also give some inputs which break it. Regards, Michael W.

Sorry, I should have replied but Real Life has been intruding... Thanks for the sites, they were interesting and I have bookmarked both. One of them in particular is exactly the sort of thing I am looking for. The traffic seems a bit low after this group but I won't complain as each thread is 100% pure maths. Reading some of the comments on other threads (as well as observing yet another MMM swarming) I think I am not the only one ready to throw in the towel on sci.math. Regards, Michael W.
