less accurate is more accurate than inaccurate even if accurate does not exist.

this is just plain topology isn't it?

This article was booooring and if that is what e-mag hell is about, then I've just been to hell and back.
scientist read and write the most boringly written journal articles in the world, in my view. a scientist who writes a journal article has no concern for his writing style if he gets his message across with equations using multiple summations and differential calculus?

why am i beginning to doubt that you are one?
