CJ's Teeth/Glasses
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Jeff, Alia Johnson reports that CJ has not had his teeth and glasses returned. Can you tell me, or refer me to someone who can, what is needed to get that done. Or if I have no right to get involved who else should make the request. Got a Fedex account ready for use. Thanks much, John

First, you are using the present tense in saying that TIS "supports" export controls, but your article is from nine months ago. There have been many changes since then, including loosening of the crypto export rules, the acquisition of TIS by Network Associates, and a recent statement that TIS has backed off … [View More]

Goldbach's Conjecture - a question about prime sums of odd numbers...
by Jim Choate 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Hi, I have a question related to Goldbach's Conjecture: All even numbers greater than two can be represented as the sum of primes. Is there any work on whether odd numbers can always be represented as the sum of primes? This of course implies that the number of prime members must be odd and must exclude 1 (unless you can have more than a single instance of a given prime). Has this been examined? I'm assuming, since I can't find it explicitly stated anywhere, that Goldbachs Conjecture allows … [View More]

A tad more on Goldbach's Conjecture....
by Jim Choate 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Hi, I figure I'll share the thought I'm trailing.... Given Goldbach's Conjecture as true then it has a geometric interpretation. Given a triangle of even area greater than two it can be tiled with a set of triangles, with areas given by primes, exactly. I'm using equilaterals as a test case since they're easy to deal with geometricaly. So, if one can show that this is true then Goldbach's follows. ____________________________________________________________________ … [View More]
