So Shirley MacLain can't solve Schroerdinger's equation -- can you sing
and dance?

I don't see any difference between "I don't know what this is, I don't
know what gluons are -- maybe this is gluons" and "I don't know what
causes this bug, I can't find a reason, and I don't understand what the
hardware is doing, maybe it's the hardware's fault."

If she has to get permission by solving S's equation (damned if I'm
gonna type it again) maybe you should have to explain to me the meaning
of the *Avelokitesvara Sutra* before you can talk about philosophy.
(Or I'll make it easy on you -- just Kant's *Critique of Pure Reason*.)

Grumpily,
