And how can you be sure both of them are your age? Were you wearing your old man glasses and focused on the ‘smiles’? Ever thought may be they had various Botox parties and both of them actually are way older than you!! And the encounters can be filed under ‘Mrs Jones moments’ ;-) (side comment: it still puzzles me why women easily entertain the idea of and embark on injecting poison in their skin. I’m for ‘AWGC’ (here it means: Ageing with Grace Campaign not Goldbach Conjecture) or wait may be this is it: Maths is the secret to eternal beauty!)<br /><br />Secondly, why were you surprised re lady in encounter one knowledge of ‘Goldbach Conjecture’ when there was a high probability she would be by her mere attendance of the specialized maths talk? <br /><br />Thirdly, for those of us who do not know ‘Goldbach Conjecture’ Why scores of 5 at a time? What is the importance of 5 (apart from high five:-) !) <br /> <br />Fourthly, ”Once you have internalized the concept that you can not prove anything in absolute terms, life becomes all the more about odds, chances, and trade offs. In a world without provable truths, the only way to refine the probabilities that remain is through greater knowledge and understanding.” by Robert E. Rubin from his book ‘In an uncertain world: Tough choices from Wall Street to Washington’<br /><br />Summary conclusion: okay hate to break the news, Sit on the chaise longue : ‘You are experiencing a quasi resurrection of ‘brain in a vat’ phenomenon!’ <br />Keep us posted as it develops to a full fledged resurrection by the end of 2010;-)M4GDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05037301160446631777noreply@blogger.com
