I really don't care what you work on. My point is that your commentary
in these threads has virtually no formal mathematical import, as it
comes down to a bunch of whining that your personal notions are not
embodied in set theory even though you can't point to a formal system
(either published or of your own, and the gibberish you've posted in
threads and on your own site is not even a corhernt attempt toward a
formal system) that does embody your personal notions and you can't
even HINT at what such a system might be.

YOU can't REview something you've never VIEWED.

Since that phrasing might be misunderstood, I should say that I mean:
Zermelo's motivation was to prove that for every set, there exists a
well ordering on it.

Well no formal modern mathematical support perhaps, Moe(x), but I
don't think you can say no formal mathematical import.

I said 'virtually none'.
