@Cyan: "... you're going to need more equations and fewer words."
Don't you see a lower-case sigma representing a series every time I say "increasingly"? ;-)
Seriously though, I read a LOT of technical papers and it seems to me much of the beautiful LaTex equations and formulas are only to give the *impression* of rigor. And there are few equations that could "prove" anything in this area of inquiry.
What would help my case, if it were not already long lost in Eliezer's view, is to have provided examples, references, and commentary along with each abstract formulation. I lack the time to do so, so I've always considered my "contributions" to be seeds of thought to grow or not depending on whether they happen to find fertile soil.
