Welcome

Paper Tigers


I’m surrounded by

industrial academics

seeking to turn

mathematical philosophies

into practical wisdom.

Trying to define the infinite

by proving that the successor of one

is indeed two

and engaging in the popular passions

of graceful evasions

and

glittering generalizations

to keep their funding.
