What You Need To Know

I have been insanely busy and travelling all week. This will continue tomorrow, hopefully reaching a peak so that things will mellow out a bit into the weekend.

The remainder of this post is for the gentleman who, when challenged by me today asked me with a straight face “You don’t need proof that 1+1=2, do you?”

Principia

For those of you who don’t speak formal logic, you may translate this reply as “Actually, I do. And you want to believe that if I won’t take 1+1=2 on faith, then I’m certainly not going to give any credence to whatever crap you happen to think is ‘self-evident’ without at least a whiff of rational evidence.”
